The district has willingly made generous offers to ensure improved accommodations for the families and we are following a methodical process to accomplish this task." Hentges said money isn't the issue."Money cannot protect her from the damage to her quality of life during the short time she has left," Hentges said. "This is not about money. This is about a family, a society, a community’s responsibility for their most vulnerable members."
