At Skippers Angel Wings, we center ourselves on the following core values

• Integrity: We believe in acting with uprightness and virtue, communicating openly, honestly and with calm compassion throughout the rendering of our services. We want to reflect goodness and decency in everything we do.
• Respect: We believe in upholding the dignity of every human being and respecting each person’s right to proper care delivered with compassion, regardless of a person’s background, age, or condition.
• Dignity: Every human being has a right to experience death with dignity. Sickness and death are human milestones that should be handled in such a way that lifts up and honors all people involved in the experience.
• Compassion: We believe in always showing kindness and compassion to every person. We aim to be servant leaders with a focus on putting the needs of others before our own. We strive to always listen carefully to the needs of others, not only offering sympathetic ears but helping hands, voices of advocacy, and warm hearts filled with selfless love. 
• Diversity: To us, the human experience is one of delightful divergence and variety. Our many differences make life richer and make each beautiful human wonderful and fascinating. We honor the diverse experiences each of our clients brings and uphold their preciousness as distinct and unique souls.

Skippers Angel Wings was founded by Michele Bell in 2003. Michele’s son, Nicky, lost his battle with cancer in 2005.  She was at her son’s side throughout exhausting treatments and never-ending emotional stress. During these moments of anguish, her eyes were opened to the lack of awareness and compassion for suffering families. While she remains grateful for the medical professionals who assisted in Nicky’s care, she knew something was missing. She created this foundation to deliver necessary aspects of care that Doctors simply can not; implementing holistic therapy practices, art, music, and more, to improve the quality of life up until the very end.

After being scrutinized by her corporate job for her mild request of some extra time off to be with her son in his critical condition, Michele knew it was her duty to bring more love and light to the world. She is all too familiar with the feelings that come along with being, or loving, someone who is at the end of their life. Michele created this foundation to turn her trauma into something she could only wish she had during her times of need. She fuels Skipper Angel Wings on her values of affirmation, education, and inner peace.

Skippers Angel Wings goes beyond modern medicine, reaching deep down and impacting the soul. Our purpose is to make a long-lasting impression on families in agony, even after their chapter with illness has closed. Michele is proud to say she has created a holistic safe haven. Skippers Angel Wings provides critical attention and support for those enduring the battle of a lifetime.

“My goal is to accelerate emotional breakthroughs for patients and their families, bringing you closer together and illuminating the beauty of life that is present even during heartbreak. There is no greater joy for me than seeing the progress Skippers Angel Wings allows families; diving deep into unique ways of coping and healing from within.”
