🎅✨ Even Santa slows down in the fog! ✨🎅

Dense fog is rolling across Louisiana, and visibility can disappear faster than reindeer on Christmas Eve.
🎄🦌

With families traveling on Christmas Day, take a little extra care on the road:

•Slow down •Use low-beam headlights •Leave extra space between vehicles •Avoid distractions •Do NOT use emergency/hazard lights while driving in foggy conditions

Arriving safely is the best gift you can give your loved ones. 🎁

Merry Christmas!

A Humble Beginning

The story of the Foundation begins in a most humbling way. When local Hammond businessman Richard Murphy was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 1982, he wanted to live his remaining days in the familiar surroundings and comfort of his home. Since the area did not have a bona fide hospice provider, Richard’s family, friends and medical team learned about hospice care and established the first hospice network in Hammond, Louisiana. Following Richard Murphy’s death, and the exposure it created for hospice care, the Richard Murphy Hospice Foundation was established to create a funding mechanism for families of the terminally ill who wanted hospice care, but did not have the insurance or funds for hospice care.
