• Mary Lou Cameron, chair-
person of the Wingham and
District Hospital Foundation
expressed her profound grati-
tude to the family of the late
Betty Hlavach (nee Zinn) for
the community spirit and
generosity she has shown the
Hospital Foundation and to
the people served by the
Wingham and District
Hospital.
"The Wingham and
District Hospital Foundation
strives to recognize all dona-

hospital, every dollar counts

"I continue to say
that we have to have

That point was
echoed by the plea
from one parent for
safe havens for

teens. Identified

they become lost in

"Some people
