Caring in America
We are the Podcast for Caregivers and the Care Recipient.
As Rosalynn Carter stated, There are only four kinds of people in the world — those that have been caregivers, those that are caregivers, those who will be caregivers, and those who will need caregivers.”
We introduce the Elder Care Experts, who provide their wisdom to educate about Care and all the components around it. Our goal is to make the Caregiver and the Care Recipient aware of as many Elder Care Resources as possible. We tell stories of Care in America. Stories of Love, Compassion, Frustration, Understanding and Patience in Elder Care.

Learn about Online Memorials, a trend that’s here to stay. Learn about the change that COVID created.
When someone passes away and we want to memorialize that person.
However, many folks have moved away. Kids, grandkids, old friends and colleagues.
The average funeral has travel expenses, the funeral may only be a few days away.
Some folks can't make that trip because of age, expenses or both!

An Online Memorial---A Life Long Memory!!
Willowise was founded by Brock and Esther Sheets. Brock’s dad, David, passed away unexpectedly due to Covid in early 2021. As the Sheets family was processing through this sudden loss, we decided a virtual memorial service was going to be the most effective way to honor David’s life and legacy. Having lived & served as a pastor in 11 different churches across 5 states, David’s “community” was spread out across the entire US. Travel to a single memorial service location simply wasn’t possible for all who loved David and called him friend.
Brock has spent 9+ years marketing, guiding the website design, producing webinars, hosting virtual meetings, and delivering virtual education for a professional defense association in Washington, DC. Esther has a gift of empathy and caring that is unmatched. She is able to uniquely connect with families & care for them in their grief. This combined experience was perfectly suited to create a beautiful tribute website and a moving memorial service for David with over 500 people in attendance.
Since then, Willowise has gone on to help thousands of satisfied people in their own seasons of loss. We combine user-friendly technology platforms, professional project management, and unmatched empathy to create a powerful and moving memorial experience for you and your loved-ones.
