"It was like Heaven"
Cora Pitts
Beneficiary
"It’s definitely a home away from home. We all have our own rooms, but nine times out of 10, we end up in the family room together."
Julie Brooker
Beneficiary
"I don’t know what I would do without a Fisher House. I either wouldn’t be able to come, or we would have to stay in an expensive hotel."
