were looking for support for Hope Lodge.
We’re just very pleased and excited about it.”
Thanks to the generous gift from the
Horner Family, Hope Lodge Dallas will
include a healing garden to support patients’
spiritual and emotional healing. What’s
unique about the Horner Family Garden of
Hope is that it will also feature a butterfly
garden within, designed with plantings such
as milkweed, marigold and lantana, which
are proven to draw and feed butterflies. A
plaque honoring the jewelers of the family’s
jewelry company, Premier Designs, will be
featured in the butterfly garden.
The Horner Family have been loyal supporters of Baylor, and their gifts have provided significant support for Baylor’s fight
against cancer and have also led to the Joan
Horner Interfaith Prayer Garden at Baylor
Dallas, and to the naming of The Horner
Family Chapel in the Baylor Charles A.
Sammons Cancer Center.
“In Philippians 4:7, we have been given a
wonderful promise: ‘The peace of God, which
passes all understanding, will guard your
hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.’ My
parents believed that true success is never
measured by money or the material things we
have. It is measured by the lives we have
enriched and the people we have served, never
expecting anything in return,” said Tim
Horner, president of Premier Designs, Inc.
“Jesus came to serve, not to be served. We
cannot have any higher calling than that. This
is why Premier Designs, Inc. is defined as a
service company whose Purpose is to honor
God and enrich every life we touch.”
As patients and their families visit the
healing garden at Hope Lodge, the Horner
family’s desire is that they will find peace
and hope that will give them comfort
during their healing process.
