Touched by Angels Executive Director
Denise Spear
Denise has many years of experience as a family caregiver. Ten years ago she cared for her parents until their passing, and this is how Touched by Angels was created. From experiencing her own family in difficulty and crisis while they navigated this passage, she saw the crucial need for quality supervised caregiving and was inspired to take action!
Touched by Angels has grown rapidly over the last ten years and she has become more dedicated and devoted to our community with each passing year. Denise attributes her success to her “angel” caregivers. With their devoted compassion, dedication and skill – they are the heart and soul of the business.
