Introduction to Final Family

Final Family is a story about the impact on Appalachian Hospice on the lives of the Chesser Family. Lloyd Chesser, 83, has been on hospice for nearly a year. Hospice nurses, aides and social workers spend countless hours with Lloyd each week. Along with Lloyd's relatives, the hospice workers are his final family.

The following is an excerpt from the print story and a selection of images from the time I spent with the Chessers at their home in New Marshfield.
