Bui ldingwith the Support of Our DonorsPHYLLIS AND TOM OSTERMANPhyllis and Tom Osterman are committed to each other, to their family, and tohelping others. The Stamford couple was married in 1995 and between them,they have seven children and 15 grandchildren.Photo by Bruce AndoOver the course of her career, Phyllis worked as a patient advocate at MemorialSloan Kettering and then at the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society. She has been ahospice volunteer with Visiting Nurse & Hospice of Fairfield County since 2012and has recently joined the Board.“It is truly an honor to help people at the most vulnerable time of their lives,”said Phyllis. “As a hospice volunteer, I visit patients in their homes. Often theseindividuals feel isolated by their illness and I offer comfort and companionship toease their loneliness.”Tom is a partner with Sterling Equities in New York, where he has worked since 1975. He recently underwent a complicated,nine-hour spinal surgery and needed intensive home care when he was discharged from the hospital after four days.“Visiting Nurse & Hospice of Fairfield County had a nurse at our home right away,” said Tom. “She assessed my needs anddetermined what assistance and equipment would be necessary for my recuperation. In addition to her nursing visits, shearranged for a physical therapist and an occupational therapist to work with me twice a week. I was severely restricted andthey assisted me in every necessity. They were helpful, compassionate, competent and confident. The care they provided wasexceptional and totally exceeded my expectations.”“To be on the receiving end of this level of care makes me proud to be a part of this agency,” continued Phyllis. “They provideeducation, support and guidance to patients and their families. You don’t think about it until you are in the situation. You can’tanticipate what it will be like or what you will need. We felt totally reassured. We had someone to call.”In addition to supporting the agency on an annual basis, Phyllis and Tom have made provisions for Visiting Nurse & Hospice ofFairfield County in their estate planning and are members of the Lillian Wald Legacy Society.“The agency provides free services for those who are unable to afford the care they need,” said Phyllis. “These services are vitaland, as a non-profit agency, they need our support. We consider this to be a social justice issue. We want the agency to continueto serve others in the way that we have benefitted from their care. What would happen if they weren’t there to meet this criticalcommunity need?”11
