Donation in memory of the late Kathie Dubben
It was overwhelming to be informed that the late Kathie Dubben had arranged that donations in her memory are to be offered to Chaplaincy with the specific wish that the monies were to be used for the ‘Loved and Lost Baby Service’.
Kathie was supportive as a parent who had lost a beloved daughter whom she continued to remember and treasure.
I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the donations of £455.00. This is an invaluable contribution to supporting the service of all who are affected by the death of a baby whether before or after birth.
This donation will help the Department to continue to walk with those who continue the pain of separation and whose babies are too precious to forget, and that this service will continue to offer compassion and hope in a safe space.
Once again, thank you Kathie and her family and friends for your kindness and generosity. The next service is held at Bethel Church, Picton Terrace, Carmarthen, SA31 1BT on Saturday 27th April, 2024 at midday
With deepest appreciation,
Euryl, Senior Chaplain, Hywel Dda Health Board.
