Dear Editor,

Re: [Premier kicks off MRI work, 91Ô­´´ Advance Times, July 17]

Congratulations to the 91Ô­´´ Hospital Foundation and everyone who has worked so hard to advocate for and fund raise in support of 91Ô­´´â€™s healthcare needs.

The announcement of an MRI to be installed at 91Ô­´´ Memorial Hospital is due in large measure to their tireless efforts.

The foundation, along with its many volunteers and donors, represent the best of 91Ô­´´â€™s community spirit.

Having represented 91Ô­´´ as the MLA since 2005, I can attest to the monumental effort behind the scenes leading up to an announcement such as this. Let’s all count ourselves blessed to have such caring and dedicated volunteers in our community.

I hope this small acknowledgment will make up for my absence from the event, as I was only given about 30-minutes advance notice.

On behalf of the 91Ô­´´ community, I want to express my deepest gratitude for everyone who contributed time and resources toward this achievement.

MLA Mary Polak
