On July 20, Kellie Walker and her Voices Lifted choir packed their songbooks and headed to Dobson Home -- one of three homes overseen by Hospice of the Valley.

Walker's mission with Voices Lifted is to comfort and console those in pain, be it the person lying in the hospice bed or their relatives sitting nearby. By chance, the group performed a childhood favorite for Beck and Klimczak -- "Edelweiss," from The Sound of Music.

Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism.
