Hospice of Texarkana Honors Local Heroes This Veterans Day

Hospice of Texarkana Honors Local Heroes This Veterans Day
(Texarkana, USA) – This Veterans Day, Hospice of Texarkana will again take to the streets with its annual “Care-A-Van”, a rolling tribute to the men and women who have served our country. On Tuesday, November 11, staff, volunteers, and community partners will visit senior and assisted living centers throughout the area to thank and recognize local Veterans.

The group will gather at Hospice of Texarkana’s office at 9 a.m., and the Care-A-Van will depart at 9:30
a.m. Stops include Reunion Plaza, Avir at Cowhorn Creek, Asher Point Independent Living, Cornerstone
Retirement Community, Brookdale Assisted Living, The Oaks Assisted Living, The Magnolia Assisted
Living, and McKee Assisted Living.

Each stop features live patriotic music, presentations of certificates, and personal American flags for
every Veteran. In 2024, the Care-A-Van honored 110 Veterans, and organizers hope to surpass that
number this year.

Community supporters joining this year include the Texarkana Police Department, Army Recruiters,
Redwater Volunteer Fire Department, Ben’s Heart/22 a Day, Ashley’s Homecare and House Call,
Texarkana Antique Cars, Cornerstone Caregiving, Texarkana Area Veterans Engagement Board, with
patriotic music selections provided along the route by Hampton Fontenot.

“As a hospice organization, we have the privilege of serving Veterans every day,” said Cindy Marsh,
Executive Director of Hospice of Texarkana. “This event is our way of saying thank you—not just for their
service, but for the lives they’ve touched right here in our community.”

Hospice of Texarkana is a proud We Honor Veterans partner offering specialized services such as
Veteran-to-Veteran volunteer visits, recognition ceremonies, and assistance with benefits.
