When Sharyn Cole Eubanks entered the final chapter of her life, her family sought more than just care—they sought a place of peace, love, and dignity. They found that at Caring Hearts and Hands of Columbia (CHHC).
Sharyn lived her life with quiet strength, dignity, and a commitment to helping others. Even in her professional career as a psychiatric aide, she healed not just with her hands, but with her heart.In her final days on earth, Sharyn was wrapped in the care of the CHHC team. According to her daughter Stacey Robertson, who wrote a note to the CHHC staff,
Words seem inadequate to express my gratitude for the services, care, and support you all provided my Mom.” Stacey described how her mother instantly felt “cared for, respected, and loved,” and how CHHC became more than a facility: it became family. Stacey recalled how her mother lit up from the connections she made in those last days.
Stacey was especially moved by the way the CHHC team cared not only for her mother but for her as well. “You supported me, an only child,” she wrote. “A setting like CHHC is what everyone deserves at the end of life on this side of heaven.”
The staff didn’t just perform their duties, they held space for Sharyn’s spirit. They listened, supported, and created an environment of peace, which every visitor deeply felt. “All of our visitors felt the love,” Stacey wrote. “Love gives strength to overcome any challenge.”
In honor of that care and her legacy of love the family has invited memorial donations to CHHC, so others may receive the same compassionate send-off.
Stacey closed her letter with gratitude: “Thank you CHHC for loving my Mom into eternity, her Heavenly Home.”
