2. WELCOME LETTER AND THANK YOU
CATHERINE PHILBIN, DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT
Dear Friends, Colleagues and Survivors,
Thank you so much for participating in next Sunday’s 23rd
annual Care for Cancer Walk. This event has a
longstanding history in our community, touching the
lives of so many individuals and families who are affected
by cancer. With your help, we continue to make a
difference in the lives of so many people.
Over the past few weeks, I have had the privilege of
reading memorials and team tributes as they come into
the Foundation office. I am moved by the sentiment
shared by teams such as “Lab for Lo,” which is walking this
year in honor of Lorraine Duggan, a longtime Holy Family
employee who passed away from cancer earlier this year.
Or individuals who submitted touching testimonials to
the care received at Holy Family. I encourage you to take
a moment to read through this tribute book and hope
you are as touched as I am by the many messages.
Thanks to your generosity, we are well on our way to meet
our goal of raising $500,000 by the end of 2009. The funds
that we raise enable our team of caregivers to continue
providing advanced diagnostic and treatment options
like the newly established lung clinic and the Trilogy
Stereotactic system coming later this year – as well as
access to clinical trials.
NEW HDR AND IMRT TREATMENT
We would also like to thank Holy Family’s Men’s Guild and
Women’s Auxiliary who work hard year round to raise
money to benefit the ongoing advancement of cancer
care in the Merrimack Valley. This year alone the Guild and
Auxiliary have raised over $150,000 for the William L. Lane Santos K. Shetty, M.D., FACRO
Cancer Management Center. Astrid O. Peterson, M.D.
Daniel F. Flynn, M.D.
Through the participation of individuals and families
across the Merrimack Valley and with the support of
community sponsors like Trinity Ambulance, New
England Radiation Therapy Association and Dr. Santos
Shetty, this walk embraces the spirit of caring while
allowing Holy Family Hospital to continue to provide
exceptional cancer care.
I greatly appreciate your support on this important day
and everyday. See you next Sunday, September 28th.
