After Captain Kevin Drue Donnelly’s diagnosis with HCV, he worked tirelessly to assist veterans, their families and individuals new to this path.

As he neared the end of his life, due to this virus, Kevin had one regret:  that he had not spent more time assisting others to learn about hospice care.

“Veterans’ Hospice Outreach”  helps veterans and those in need:
