The 30th Anniversary of Hospice Buffalo produced "A Harvest to Remember" with $285,000 raised to support hospice care in our community. A sold-out crowd of 900 people attended the Harvest Festival, one of Hospice Buffalo's largest fundraisers on October 3rd at the Adams Mark Grand Ballroom in Buffalo.
Bill and Marcy Munson chaired the 8th Annual Harvest Festival, a Celebration of Hospice, Friends and Family, presented by the Buffalo Bills. Bill Munson is vice president of government relations and external affairs for the Buffalo Bills and Marcy Munson is a board member of The Center for Hospice & Palliative Care.
In addition, M&T Bank, Dr. Yashu Satchidanand, Rev.

Hospice Buffalo provides hope, care and dignity to people with serious illness and their families.
