SUNFLOWER SISTERS BRING
A BLOOM TO HOSPICE PATIENTS
Hyannis resident Cynthia Robotham (left) is Volunteer Coordinator for Beacon Hospice’s Yarmouth Port office and Georgia Williams, a registered nurse from Bourne, is a Beacon Hospice volunteer. Together, they’re the Sunflower Sisters who don their bright costumes to entertain patients suffering from dementia, end-stage Alzheimer’s, and other terminal illnesses at various Cape Cod nursing and assisted living centers. They began transforming themselves into the Sunflower Sisters earlier this year and make their “rounds” at least once a month. For more information about the Sunflower Sisters,
