The Br. David Legacy Circle

The Br. David Legacy Circle comprises generous donors with big hearts. By making a planned gift to Grateful Living, they said yes to building a more grateful world even after they are gone. These are some of our biggest heroes, greatest friends, and those who make this mission possible today and into the future.

Those who have left us
will be present to us
in other ways, in our hearts
and thoughts and memory.

Anyone truly precious to us
will have planted a seed
that will grow in us,
bloom and bear fruit,
nourished with loving care.
—Edda Hackl
