College of Cardiology Foundation’s NCDR®
ACTION Registry®–GWTGTM Platinum
Performance Achievement Award
Memorial Hospital has received the American
College of Cardiology Foundation’s NCDR ACTION
Registry–GWTG Platinum Performance
Achievement Award for 2013 – one of only 197
hospitals nationwide to do so. The award
recognizes Memorial Hospital’s commitment and
success in implementing a higher standard of
care for heart attack patients, and signifies that
Memorial Hospital has reached an aggressive goal
of treating these patients to standard levels of
care as outlined by the American College of
Cardiology/American Heart Association clinical
guidelines and recommendations.
To receive this award, Memorial Hospital
consistently followed the treatment guidelines in
the ACTION Registry–GWTG Premier for 8
consecutive quarters and met a performance
standard of 90% for specific

performance measures. Following these
treatment guidelines improves adherence to
ACC/AHA Clinical Guideline recommendations,
monitors drug safety and the overall quality of
care provided to ST-elevation myocardial
infarction (STEMI) and non- ST- elevation
myocardial infarction patients (NSTEMI).
ACTION Registry–GWTG is a partnership between
the American College of Cardiology Foundation
and the American Heart Association with
partnering support from the American College of
Emergency Physicians and the Society of
Cardiovascular Patient Care. This partnership has
empowered health care provider teams to
consistently treat heart attack patients according
to the most current, science-based guidelines and
establish a national standard for understanding
and improving the quality, safety and outcomes
of care provided for patients with coronary artery
disease, specifically high-risk STEMI and NSTEMI
patients.
MEMORIAL ANNUAL REPORT 2013 -2014
“ THE HOSPITAL’S GOAL IS TO
SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE THE
MORTALITY RATE OF PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HEART ATTACKS
BY TEACHING EVERY MAN AND
WOMAN TO RECOGNIZE AND
REACT TO THE EARLY
SYMPTOMS. ”

Memorial Named Top 100 Great
Community Hospital
Memorial Health Care System receives
Chest Pain Center Reaccreditation
Memorial Hospital has been named to the 2014
edition of 100 Great Community Hospitals, a list
based on community hospitals' accolades, quality
and service to their communities by Becker's
Hospital Review.
Memorial Health Care System has announced
that Memorial Hospital and Memorial Hospital
Hixson have received full chest pain center
reaccreditation.
According to the Becker’s Hospital Review article,
the hospitals that made the list have fewer than
550 beds and have continually worked to provide
the quality of care and the experience patients
deserve and expect. Memorial Hospital is a 336 bed
hospital that has provided healthcare services
throughout southeast Tennessee and North Georgia
since 1952.
The Becker’s Hospital Review team selected
hospitals for inclusion based on rankings and
awards from iVantage Health Analytics, Truven
Health Analytics, CareChex and the American
Hospital Association.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, heart attacks are the leading cause of
death in the United States, with approximately
600,000 people dying annually of the disease.
More than five million Americans visit hospitals
each year with chest pain. Memorial Health Care
System Chief Medical Officer Kevin Lewis M.D
says, “The hospital’s goal is to significantly reduce
the mortality rate of people experiencing heart
attacks by teaching every man and woman to
recognize and react to the early symptoms of a
possible heart attack, reduce the time it takes to
receive treatment, and increase the accuracy and
effectiveness of treatment. The hospital’s recent
reaccreditation is an important achievement for
people across the area. By operating accredited
chest pain centers to serve patients in Chattanooga,
Hixson and the surrounding areas, Memorial
Health Care System has significantly raised the

quality of care for chest pain patients and has
demonstrated its commitment to higher standards of
care.”
As accredited chest pain centers, Memorial
Hospital and Memorial Hospital Hixson have
demonstrated expertise and commitment to
quality patient care by meeting or exceeding a
wide set of stringent criteria and undergoing an
onsite review by a team of Society of Cardiovascular
Patient Care (SCPC) accreditation review specialists.
Key areas in which the SCPC must demonstrate
expertise include:
(1) integrating the emergency department with
the local emergency medical system
(2) assessing, diagnosing and treating patients
quickly
(3) having a functional design that promotes
optimal patient care
(4) ensuring Chest Pain Center personnel
competency and training
(5) continually seeking to improve processes and
procedures.

Memorial Recognized by Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services
(CMS) named Memorial Hospital in Chattanooga
one of the 97 best hospitals in the country for
hip and knee replacements.
To determine rankings, the CMS study looked at
the number of times patients were readmitted
to a hospital within 30 days of discharge and
how often patients suffered serious
complications after surgery.

Memorial’s Joint Replacement Center offers
total or partial joint replacement by the best
surgical, nursing and rehabilitation staff in the
region. Many of the orthopedic surgeons on staff
at Memorial are fellowship-trained and highly
experienced, having performed 1,762 hip and
knee replacements annually at Memorial
Hospital. Patients having hip and knee
replacement at Memorial receive a broad
spectrum of care before, during and after their
procedure, including a personalized
rehabilitation program, resulting in exceptional
outcomes.
Memorial’s Joint Replacement Center patients
are invited to participate in a progressive
rehabilitation program, designed to get patients
active and self-sufficient as soon as possible. In
order to ensure the best results, patients receive
personalized physical and occupational therapy
services designed to fit their individual needs.
Memorial Hospital was the only facility in
Chattanooga, TN included in the 97 best
hospitals list.

MESSAGE FROM
FOUNDATION BOARD
CHAIR
Holly L. Harwell
Pink! 2014 crossed the $1.5M mark in funds raised to
support breast cancer care in our region. In December we
publically announced the Rees Skillern Cancer Institute,
which is now under construction. And in June we opened
the Guerry Heart and Vascular Center, a highlight of
efforts by the Inspired Heroes: Campaign for Memorial
team charged with raising $15 million toward Memorial’s
monumental expansion project.
In this report, we spotlight the last year’s successes and
show you how we have put your generous contributions to
work providing the highest level of health care for our
region. Memorial depends on community support more
than ever to advance the latest technologies in patient
care. Thanks to your continued generosity, Memorial will
remain a strong health care provider for you and your
family and to thousands who live in our region.
It’s been a year for growth and preparation for the future.
We are so thankful to everyone who made this year such a
success for the Memorial Health Care System and the
Foundation.
Thank you for supporting Memorial!

Family Waiting Area Dedicated in Honor
of Pat and Carolyn Robinson
Memorial Announces Rees Skillern Cancer
Institute
On Sunday, August 18, 2013 friends and relatives
from all over Tennessee and Georgia traveled to
Chattanooga for the dedication of a new surgery
family waiting area at Memorial. Long-time Memorial
volunteers Pat & Carolyn Robinson were honored for
their gift to the Foundation that named the waiting
area. Father Charlie Burton from St. Jude Catholic
Church, where Pat and Carolyn are members, was
invited to give the blessing for the reception. Special
remarks were shared by Lisa Fitzsimmons, service
line administrator for surgery, and Sister Eileen
Wrobleski, C.S.C., senior vice president of mission
integration. To close the event, Pat and Carolyn
themselves shared words of thanks to those in
attendance and spoke fondly of their experience with
Memorial over the years. They expressed how grateful
they are for the blessings of life that have allowed
them to be a part of Memorial’s service to this
community, as well as to leave a legacy during a
time of innovation and expansion.
Fred and Bettye Skillern lost their only son to
cancer two years ago at the age of 49. Rees, a
business leader and investor, battled cancer for
many years and received much of his treatment at
Memorial, including a lengthy stay in the oncology
inpatient unit surrounded by his loving family
and friends. Rees expressed his wish that his
estate be used to benefit others, and Mr. and Mrs.
Skillern are honoring his wishes with a $3 million
gift to the Memorial Foundation for the
advancement of cancer care in our community.
SECTION: 02

“Rees was so giving, and we wanted his giving
spirit and his memory to live on at Memorial,”
said Fred Skillern. “It was very important to us
that part of this gift would be used for additional
research opportunities in this community, where
it would be most beneficial to our friends, family
and neighbors.”
In honor of Rees, Memorial’s total cancer program
will now be called the Rees Skillern Cancer Institute.
This will be the umbrella name over programs
including the MaryEllen Locher Breast Center, the
H. Clay Evans Johnson Radiation Center, the
Schmissrauter Center for Cancer Support, and all
other special programs. In addition to exterior and
interior renovations of the Institute, the generous
gift will fund the new Memorial Cancer Risk and
Survivorship Center which will offer three highly
specialized services that will make a tremendous
difference in the early detection and treatment of
cancer and offer services that are currently not
available in the Chattanooga region.
The center will be the first dedicated, high risk genetic
counseling clinic in the area. Though Memorial has
been providing cancer risk counseling for 15 years,
this will provide the opportunity to make genetic
testing part of the total picture for early detection
and more accurate diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
Memorial will develop the first dedicated,
multidisciplinary resource for adult cancer survivors,
empowering survivors to maximize their health,
quality of life and longevity. The center will also
provide information on the prevention, detection
and treatment complications that can result from
cancer treatment.
Memorial plans to give cancer patients in the area
greater access to the latest treatments for cancer.
While Memorial will not be performing laboratory
research, it will increase the emphasis on research.
The number of clinical trails and the amount of
research available is expected to increase at an
accelerated rate.

“We are at a crossroads of exciting new ways to
improve cancer detection and treatment for
everyone in the community, creating a legacy of
advanced cancer care at Memorial benefiting
thousands of people throughout our community.”

Kramer Family Cardiac Imaging Center
Dedication
On Monday morning, June 9, 2014, Rich and
Barbara Kramer stood with their three children,
their son-in-law, and Barb’s father as cardiac
physicians and staff from Memorial surrounded
them in the Kramer Family Imaging Center, part
of the new heart and vascular center. It was a
special moment for Rich and Barb to share with
their children, who live in Alabama, North
Carolina and Franklin, Tennessee, and with Barb’s
father, who was celebrating his 92nd birthday.
Dr. William Oellerich spoke to the Kramer family
about what the center will mean to the
community. He stressed the importance of having
a regional center that offers comprehensive
imaging services dedicated to cardiac patients,
designed to offer privacy and preserve the dignity
of the patient during a visit.
Foundation President and Chief Development
Officer Jennifer Nicely recognized Rich and Barb
for their years of volunteer service with the
Memorial Auxiliary, their leadership roles on the
Auxiliary Board, and the investments they have
made over the years to help build a legacy of
patient care that also includes the MaryEllen
Locher Breast Center and the Buz Standefer Lung
Center.

Rich Kramer, speaking for the family, shared how
much it has meant to them over the years to
support patient care at Memorial. “Little did we
know how years of escorting patients all over the
hospital would influence our decision for where
our next gift would go. “Patient privacy.
Convenience. Comfort. These are the words that
struck us when we first discussed this space with
Jennifer.”
“Our inspiration is the people in this room, the
staff and volunteers who uphold Memorial’s core
values to serve patients and their families. To Barb
and me, you are the heroes.”

Guerry Heart & Vascular Center Blessing
and Dedication Ceremony
On Monday, June 9, 2014, more than 250 guests
were in attendance for the blessing and dedication
ceremony of the Guerry Heart and Vascular Center.
Among the crowd were representatives from local
and state government, community leaders,
Foundation donors, Catholic Health Initiatives CEO
Kevin Lofton, and Memorial physicians and staff.
Memorial Health Care System CEO Jim Hobson
expressed his deep gratitude for the blessings of
God to build the center. He thanked the Governor’s
office, the Hospital and Foundation Boards, the
physicians at Memorial, Catholic Health Initiatives,
and the Guerry family.
John and Zan Guerry spoke on behalf of the Guerry
family, whose commitment through their family’s
foundation not only named the center but was the
lead gift to Memorial’s $15 million Inspired Heroes
campaign. It set the tone for the campaign team
over the next 12 months as they engaged with
Foundations, business leaders and other individuals
throughout our community who could help advance
Memorial’s mission of care. As one of the Inspired
Heroes co-chairs, Zan described the fun he had
working on the campaign with his daughter, Alexis
Bogo, who was then chairing the Foundation Board
of Directors. He cited the importance Memorial
places on bringing together both the latest in
technology and the best people to practice medicine
as a reason he agreed to take on the project. He shared,
“for every dollar that we raised, Catholic Health
Initiatives gave us $20 more. That kind of return on
a fundraising campaign was unheard of until now.”
Dr. Eric Conn, a member of the physician fundraising
team for the Inspired Heroes campaign and cardiologist
with Chattanooga Heart Institute, shared that the
center is a dream come true for the team of
cardiac physicians he has worked with over the years,
who desired an all-inclusive center for patients to
receive preventative screenings, early detection and
diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation services in
one location that is beautifully designed to create a
11
SECTION: 02

soothing and comfortable patient experience.
Kevin Lofton, CEO of Catholic Health Initiatives,
addressed the crowd, saying, “I’m so proud to see
this become a reality.” He spoke of Memorial as
being a leading health care provider in the United
States, citing excellent care and the positive response
to the changing needs of the community as reasons
for its success over the past 60 years. “Memorial is
getting bigger and better,” he stated, “We chose
Chattanooga to make a $330 million investment
because we believe in what you are doing to prepare
for the future of health care.”
About The Center
Almost half of the $15 million raised during the
Inspired Heroes: Campaign for Memorial helped
build the Guerry Heart and Vascular Center. The
300,000 sq. ft., seven-story patient tower includes
seven cardiac catheterization rooms, a cardiac
short-stay unit, a critical-care unit, interventional
radiology rooms, a dedicated imaging center, and
96 patient beds. 19,000 cubic yards of concrete
and 1,200 tons of steel were used to construct the
building. The Lehman Family Center for Cardiac
Rehabilitation (scheduled to open in 2015) will
seamlessly integrate into the Guerry Center and
will be a facility focused on community wellness.
A healing garden and quiet space for visitors and
family allow for peaceful reflections. The Foundation
Board and staff are grateful to the generosity of so
many throughout the community to help build
this center, including those who were major investors
in the Inspired Heroes campaign to benefit this
beautiful new space.
Red Carpet Celebration
On Friday, June 13, 2014, Memorial physicians,
staff, and volunteers welcomed more than 200
Inspired Heroes campaign donors to a special red
carpet celebration in the Guerry Heart and Vascular
Center. Event attendees were welcomed by a
photographer to have their pictures taken on the
red carpet before being greeted in the lobby with
glasses of champagne and keys to a special
treasure chest, which only 5
keys could open. Five lucky couples chose from
gift certificates to Healthy Glow Studio, Rock
Creek, Bluff View Art District, Natural Body, and
an iPad mini. Guests enjoyed specialty drinks like
Heartburn and Double Bypass, created by Pete
Lapina and his team at Black Tie Affair, and
gourmet hors d’oeuvres by chef Greg Hicks. Tours
of the new center were offered, and everyone
enjoyed live music by Richard Eady and David
Walters.
The legacy of Memorial Health Care System lies in
the hearts of people who place a high value on
having world class health care in our community.
Memorial is grateful to the Inspired Heroes
campaign team, led by Scotty Probasco, Zan
Guerry and Dr. Bill Stacy. Many people gave
unselfishly of their time and their treasure, and
every gift strengthened Memorial’s dedication to
being among the best hospitals in the nation,
providing world class health care to our citizens
for generations to come.
Transformational Gifts
The Memorial Health Care System Foundation
is grateful to the forward thinking families
who have made transformational gifts to
Memorial. We are proud our centers of
excellence recognize those contributions
which have helped provide the highest quality
health care for our community.

LA PHILHARMONIC VIOLINIST
ROBERT GUPTA SHARES HOW
MUSIC IS MEDICINE AT THE 13TH
ANNUAL CAM BUSCH ENDOWED
ART FOR HEALTH LECTURE SERIES
Memorial Health Care System Foundation hosted
the thirteenth annual Cam Busch Endowed Arts
for Health Lecture Series and Gallery Party on Friday,
May 9th, 2014 in the Heart and Vascular Center. Still
under construction at the time. Los Angeles
Philharmonic violinist, Robert Gupta, moved the
sold out crowd of more than 200 attendees with his
emotional accounts of the healing power of music
in the lives of the mentally ill, imprisoned, and
homeless in Los Angeles.
At only 19 years old, Robert found himself caught
between a career as a doctor and as a violinist.
Despite the odds, he traveled from New York to
California to audition for the LA Philharmonic; the
rest, as they say, is history. He and a fellow violinist
began visiting "skid row" - a downtown LA district
where 3,000 - 6,000 homeless people reside today; it
did not take long to develop the vision for Street
Symphony, a non profit organization dedicated to
bringing live, classical music to these mentally ill,
imprisoned and homeless men, women and children.
The extraordinary work of the Street Symphony
engages the musical community of Los Angeles with
the underserved of Skid Row's Midnight Mission,
the Twin Towers jail and other populations
marginalized by society. Through this work, Robert
shared how he has witnessed the power of music
to bring clarity, relief and healing to the minds of
those suffering from PTSD, Alzheimers disease and
other mental disorders.
Robert's lecture and performance on the second
floor of the new Heart and Vascular Center, which
opened in July 2014, gave attendees a sneak peek
at the space.

SECTION: 02
|
On the first floor, local and regional artists
mingled with the crowd to view a collection of
their works, on display throughout the Heart
and Vascular Center. Each piece specifically
chosen by Memorial’s art selection committee
and sponsored, with permanent recognition
displayed when the pieces were placed in the
completed building. Pieces are still available
for sponsoring.
The purpose of the lecture series is to acquaint
the community with the importance of art in
the healing process. Over the past 14 years,
this series has had the privilege of hosting
well-known artists, musicians, poets,
performing artists and academics from
around the country.

An Investment in the Healthcare of
the Future
Thomas O. Duff, Jr. (1913 – 2013)
Thomas Oliver Duff, Jr. was known as a gracious
business leader and civic giant. His family’s
connection with the wholesale pharmaceutical
industry spanned more than a century,
beginning in the early 20th century with his
father’s regional company and ending in the
early 21st century as a part of the largest
pharmaceutical wholesaler in the world.
Mr. Duff was truly committed to Memorial and
its mission and he enjoyed being part of its growth
and success. That is why he made the decision to
make a planned gift to the Memorial Foundation
through a provision in his will. Mr. Duff viewed
his gift as a way to ensure the future of the
services and programs Memorial provides to the
community. We are honored that his legacy and
work at Memorial will carry on through this gift.
The Duff’s generosity is recognized in the new St.
Anne’s Chapel located in the Guerry Heart and
Vascular Center.
Planned gifts are structured to support the
philanthropic interests of the donor, and may
also provide significant tax savings or income for
the donor or a designated beneficiary. For more
information on planned giving, contact M. Wade
Kelley in the Memorial Foundation Office at
423-495-7438.

CARING SPIRIT PROGRAMS
The current environment of health care is rapidly
changing, but Memorial is committed to
providing our community with the same quality
of care you’ve come to expect from Memorial
Health Care System. We all have a story to tell
about a physician who took the time to listen and
understand our cares and concerns or a nurse
who paid attention to the little things to make us
comfortable. Simple gestures like these can leave
a lasting impression and set the standard for
great health care. Often times, our patients and
their family members turn to Memorial’s Caring
Spirit program as a way to give back.
patient care, quality and patient safety,
state-of-the-art equipment and technology, and
they touch the lives of thousands throughout our
community.
Thanks to contributions to the Caring Spirit
program from grateful patients and family
members, programs like the newly named Rees
Skillern Cancer Institute at Memorial, the Guerry
Heart and Vascular Center, and the MaryEllen
Locher Breast Center of Excellence receive
national recognition for innovative models of

setting out to explore the various arts, sciences
and history exhibits throughout the museum.

Adults and children alike enjoyed the RiverPlay
station, the Rooftop Fun Factory, the Little Yellow
House and more. An interactive science
demonstration was given in the auditorium,
during which participants used every day items
like a straw and a hair dryer to learn about how
air pressure and force can lift and sustain objects
that are heavier than air. Each child went home
that evening with a souvenir cup from the gift
shop.

"The MAGIC campaign committee is grateful for the

MEMORIAL AUXILIARY AND
VOLUNTEER SERVICES
Memorial Auxiliary and Volunteer Services
Memorial Auxiliary Volunteers were honored as
“Jewels of Memorial” for the special touch they
added to this momentous year at Memorial.
Large-scale project completions at both Memorial
Glenwood and Memorial Hixson brought new
opportunities and challenges to volunteers and
staff, who were amazingly flexible in fulfilling
their responsibilities. Volunteers became actors
to stage the mock move in preparation for moving
patients into the 96 new patient rooms in the new
seven-story Guerry Heart and Vascular Center.
They were also well represented in helping
introduce the Hixson community to the spacious
and comfortable environment of expansions at
Memorial Hospital Hixson.
The Volunteer Services Office is now located in
the new Guerry Heart and Vascular Center near
the main entrance where volunteers have been
invaluable in guiding and escorting patients and
visitors throughout the hospital. Other services

added during 2013-2014 include assisting in
Nursing Education and staffing information
desks for the new Short Stay and Coronary Care
Units.
A total of 531 volunteers - including the Memorial
Auxiliary, the American Red Cross, students,
independent volunteers, and volunteer Eucharist
ministers - provided 82,052 hours of service in 80
different areas of Memorial Health Care System.
The strength of the volunteer organization was
proved by its ability to respond to the many
unforeseen requests for assistance.
Inspired Volunteer Heroes
In addition to giving of their time and talents,
the Memorial Auxiliary raises funds to enhance
patient care, and throughout its history has
provided nearly $2 million dollars of funding
support. In this current year, the Auxiliary
MEMORIAL AUXILIARY AND VOLUNTEER SERVICES
continued to participate in the Inspired Heroes
campaign to leave a lasting legacy in the new
facilities. A pledge of $150,000 brought the
“Helping Hand” stained glass window to the
chapel and furnished a lovely family waiting room
in the new Surgery Center in the South Tower.
Another $75,000 was donated to help renovate the
Memorial Hospital Hixson Emergency Department
and Registration Area. As an encouragement to
persons with cancer, the Auxiliary also gave
$15,000 toward a beautiful weekend retreat for
patients and loved ones at the Cohutta Resort
Center in North Georgia. The Auxiliary
Scholarship Program gave $10,000 to eight college
students who met criteria in health related fields
of study.

The 6th Annual Danette Henry Memorial
Golf Tournament Raises more than
$20,000 for Cancer Patients at Memorial
On Saturday, September 14, 2013 seventy golfers
gathered at Chatata Valley Golf Course in
Cleveland, TN to honor the memory of Danette
Henry at the 6th Annual Danette Henry
Memorial Golf Tournament.
Danette’s surviving family organize the
tournament each year to raise awareness and
support of ovarian cancer, a disease she fought
for several years before she passed away in 2008.
Proceeds from the annual event, totaling more
than $103,000 in 6 years, benefit a fund set up in
her name at Memorial Foundation, which is used
to support cancer patients at Memorial.
This year the tournament raised over $20,000,
and thanks to the generosity of the tournament’s
sponsors and players, infusion therapy patients
will have a new library of DVD’s to use during

therapy sessions, which can last several hours.
This library will help keep patients relaxed and
their minds occupied during a difficult time. The
infusion center will also receive a new vein
finder, a practical piece of equipment that will
greatly increase the comfort levels of these
patients, and a chair-side call system for the
nursing staff to be in closer contact with their
patients. Last but not least, Memorial’s 4th floor
oncology unit will be the recipient of a new
blanket warmer with proceeds from this year’s
tournament.

5th Annual Roll for a Cure Raises Over
$7,700 for Breast Cancer Patients at
Memorial
On Saturday, September 28, 2013 more than 60
riders turned out for the 5th Annual Roll for a Cure
to benefit the treatment programs of the MaryEllen
Locher Breast Centers at Memorial. Thunder Creek
Harley Davidson hosted the kick-off for the day’s
ride, which had several stops throughout the day
before ending with food and live music from the
Old No. 7 Band. The annual Roll for a Cure holds a
double meaning for these riders. The word “roll”
is both a motorcycle term for the ride itself and
the act of rolling a pair of dice for prizes at each
of the stops along the way. With a true spirit of
generosity, most cash prizes are donated back to
benefit the cause, and the same was true on this
day, as well. The total raised for the day, including
donations and registration fees, came to more than
$7,700 to benefit breast cancer patients at Memorial.
Sitting in the waiting room of the MaryEllen Locher
(MEL) Breast Center after the check presentation,
one of the riders shared her personal battle with
breast cancer. She was diagnosed last September
and received treatments at a MEL Breast Center
before a surgery to remove her right breast. One of
her brothers shared, “There was not a single empty
seat in the surgery waiting room. They were all
there for us, for her.” A friend and fellow rider,
whose own daughter-in-law was recently diagnosed,
says “This group is family. What affects one of us
affects us all.” Another rider added, “Yes, she is our
inspiration and why we will continue to do this ride.”
Southern Souls MC is grateful for the support of
numerous businesses and individuals for this event,
with special thanks to Thunder Creek Harley
Davidson, the Old No. 7 Band, Widowmakers MC,
the Barkmore Pet Hotel and Daycare, Country
Chics’ Creations, Heil Trailer International Co.,
IBEW Local 1323, Tractor Supply Co., and Bruce
Sheets.

Fraternal Order of Eagles
On Saturday, May 31, 2014, the State of
Tennessee Fraternal Order of Eagles presented
Memorial Foundation President and Chief
Development Officer Jennifer Nicely with a
$5,000 grant for the Guerry Heart and Vascular
Center at Memorial.
The Fraternal Order of Eagles Ladies’ Auxiliary
also presented a check for more than $4,200 for
the Guerry Center. The women not only
organized a raffle event for one of their weekly
Saturday night dances, they also included the
proceeds from their Valentine’s Day heart
ornament sale. The ornaments were used to
decorate the Friendship Tree in the social room
of their club, which is located off of Lee
Highway in East Brainerd. The FOE Ladies’
Auxiliary was formed in 1946 and is comprised
of more than 130 members.
The Fraternal Order of Eagles is an
international organization. It was formed in
1884 and its motto is “People Helping People.”
They are long-time supporters of Memorial’s
mission, donating funds over the years to
advance patient care, including cardiac
services, cancer services and more. Visit
www.foe.com for more information or to

It has been a stellar year for the Memorial Health Care
System Foundation. I am both honored and humbled to
be part of this wonderful organization whose faith-based
mission inspires so many within our community to give
generously of their time and their treasure.
FROM CHIEF
EXECUTIVE OFFICER
Jim Hobson
Building on the success of last year, the Foundation set a
new benchmark for growth in Fiscal Year 2014, with the
$15 million Inspired Heroes capital campaign reaching its
goal, a sell-out crowd for the ninth annual Pink! Gala, and
record attendance at the 14th Annual Cam Busch Art for
Health Lecture.
This year was a time of joy and reflection as we paused to
celebrate several significant events on the Memorial
Hospital campus. Our plan to enhance oncology services
for patients and survivors took a leap forward with a
generous gift from Fred and Bettye Skillern to name the
Rees Skillern Cancer Institute. More than 200 of our top
donors and investors joined us in celebrating the naming
of the Guerry Heart and Vascular Center and completion
of our new 300,000 square-foot seven-story patient tower.
An entrée to cardiac services, the tower houses 96 patient
beds, seven new cardiac cath labs, interventional labs, a
22-bed cardiac short stay unit, a diabetes and weight
management center, and a new chapel.
Our donors, physicians, volunteers and associates have
worked together to ensure that Memorial is the regional
referral center of choice and that our patients receive the
best possible care when faced with a health challenge.
Thank you for your unwavering support of the Memorial
Health Care System Foundation and the ministry of
Memorial.
Sincerely,
James M. Hobson, FACHE

of a special person.
Host an Event
Events are a great way for small business owners
and community leaders to bring fun and unique
activities to their community with proceeds
benefiting Memorial Foundation. All events
benefitting Memorial must be approved in
advance by calling (423) 495-4151.
Corporate Sponsorships
A corporate sponsorship to one of the Foundation’s
annual events gives your business recognition
as an organization that gives back to the
community. Your company’s name and logo
can appear on invitations and programs, in the
newspaper and in the Foundation’s Annual Report.
A corporate sponsorship also has a lasting impact
on the community by making events such as
Pink! successful enough to bring back every
year and provide funds for programs and services
at Memorial.
