We are grateful for the time, dedication, and compassion she shared with our organization and most importantly, with our residents. Kelly will be deeply missed and fondly remembered.

A visitation will be held on Saturday, November 7th from 10-1 at Eminence Christian Church in Atlanta, IL 1605 2500th st 61723

With heavy hearts, we remember Bob Netzke, who served as Director of Maintenance at our organization. Bob’s dedication went beyond maintaining our homes; he helped create safe, comfortable spaces for our residents to live and thrive. His hard work, generosity, and commitment to those we serve will always be remembered and appreciated.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to Bob’s family and loved ones. Thank you, Bob, for the lasting impact you made at Homes of Hope. You will be missed.

His visitation will be held tonight from 4-6 at East Lawn Funeral Home.
