DEDICATION

Our Lynn’s Legacy program is dedicated to the treasured memory of Lynn Kelley Bernstein, a woman of enduring faith, strength and grace. In life, until her last breath, Lynn loved sacrificially, expressed constant gratitude, courageously fought back from hardships, and never felt sorry for herself. Lynn trusted her caregivers to care for her as dementia claimed her life. Lynn also for give them the opportunity to learn how to be true caregivers. She inspired us to set forth on Lynn’s Legacy.

The experience of caring for Lynn has inspired us to create this valuable program in honor of her. As certified coaches and mentors we are able to guide family caregivers through the difficult and challenging process of taking care of their loved ones at home. The needs of family caregivers can vary greatly, so our program focuses on flexibility, training and support. It is built around each individual family and their particular needs. Our coaches are able to draw on their unique blend of compassion and expertise. Self-care for caregivers is imperative. We offer videos, podcasts, blogs and training, in addition to one-on-one support to help family caregivers stay as healthy and resilient as possible.

TESTIMONIALS

“From Lynn’s example, I learned what it looks like to have a marriage full of love, respect and trust. As Peter’s devoted wife and life partner, she has never held back. The depth of her sacrificial love and trust has helped make their relationship the richest one I have ever seen. She inspires me still, as her desire to be with Peter daily sustains her life.” J.S.

“It is my privilege to be a member of the team of caregivers for Lynn. I have been a witness to the sacrifices that Peter is willing to make so that he can continue to show Lynn the love and affection that has defined their relationship for the past 46 years – regardless of how much or how little she is able to reciprocate. He is grateful for every breath she takes and every moment he has with her. Who of us wouldn’t want to know we are loved to this extent as we come to the end of our lives?” C.R.
