VAN WERT — Many people think of hospice as the last resort in the waning moments of life. That certainly wasn’t true for Agnes Bohnlein of Delphos, a patient at CHP’s Van Wert Inpatient Hospice Center.

At age 91 and facing terminal cancer, she never missed her weekly bingo game on Wednesday night at St. Johns; something she had enjoyed for years. Family, friends or volunteers took her to the game every week.

She loved bingo and would not only play each week, but worked helping distribute cards to other players too. While at the hospice center, she participated in CHP’s basket bingo event--and even won a basket.
