Most evidently, it is the hospital’s way of saying thank you to the generous supporters who make our work possible. Through their contributions, the individuals, families and organizations you read about in these pages are helping to ensure great medical care for our region. …Our community’s gratitude for the best of care. The generous donors who support Huntington Hospital are a diverse, interesting and inspiring group of people…and those profiled in this issue of Advocate are no exception. Yet all of them have at least one thing in common, and that is their desire to say “thank you” to their local hospital in some meaningful way. Some are grateful for care already received. Others appreciate knowing that Huntington Hospital will be here for them when needed. Many value our commitment to serving all community residents, regardless of their financial means. Through their gifts, the generous donors profiled in the following pages — along with many others — are helping us to continue our commitment to access and excellence. They are allowing us to sustain and even further enhance medical care that touches every one of us. And that, I think you will agree, is something for which we can all be grateful. Stephen A. Ralph President and CEO [ 2 summer 2008 ] Huntington Hospital is committed to improving the environment. The Advocate has been printed entirely on Forest Stewardship Council certified paper.

Ralph. The Ahmanson Foundation has provided a significant grant toward expansion of the hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center. [ advocate 5 ] leadership The Ahmanson Foundation: A Leading Partner in Care The Ahmanson Foundation has made an important contribution toward expansion of the Emergency & Trauma Center at Huntington Hospital, which will help the hospital meet the increased need for care. The foundation was established in 1952 by financier Howard F. Ahmanson and his wife, Dorothy. While still in college, Howard Ahmanson founded H. F. Ahmanson & Co., an insurance company that was quickly to become the preeminent fire underwriter in California. He later created Home Savings of America, which remained the nation’s largest savings and loan association for many years. The foundation’s corpus was increased over the years by Robert H. Ahmanson, who passed away in 2007 and had been a trustee since 1952 and president of the foundation since 1974, and William Hayden Ahmanson, who has been a trustee since 1952 and is still actively involved. Today, while its founder has passed away, the foundation remains guided by his devotion to enhancing the quality of life in Southern California and enhancing its cultural legacy. “Our founder selected our areas of interest,” explains current president William Howard Ahmanson, “which are the arts and humanities, health and medicine, education and human services.” Ahmanson concedes that these fields “cover a lot of ground in the area of philanthropy,” but notes that the foundation is further guided by other factors in its philanthropic decision-making: As its mission statement notes, the foundation “is particularly committed to the support of nonprofit organizations and institutions that demonstrate sound fiscal management, efficient operation, and program integrity.” A matter of life or death. “The hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center certainly matched our priorities,” says Ahmanson. “We were interested in the care it provides for indigent patients, for example, but the greatest factor in our decision to make this grant was that — no matter where you are on the economic scale — the critical hour will be exceeded if you have to bypass Huntington Hospital on the way to somewhere else, because its Emergency & Trauma Center is already full. It’s a matter of life and death, and that guided our support.” [ 6 summer 2008 ] Ahmanson is referring to that first hour following a traumatic injury — often referred to as the golden hour. Research has clearly demonstrated that reaching care within that first 60 minutes can make a lifesaving difference. Unique in our region. Long-time hospital board member and trustee Len Marangi was part of the decision-making team that approved plans for the expanded Emergency & Trauma Center. “The importance of our trauma center increased when so many other hospitals dropped out of the trauma system,” he notes. “We’re now the only one in the western San Gabriel Valley…and the next closest is at the county hospital.” Marangi points out that the hospital’s previous upgrades to its Emergency & Trauma Center created a space designed to handle approximately 30,000 visits annually. “We’re now providing about 60,000 visits a year and anticipate that the volume will increase,” he says. “The board remains concerned about the resulting increase in waiting times. Even though we’ve added doctors and nurses and rearranged everything we can to maximize the existing facilities, waiting time is still a problem. We must increase our capacity so that community members don’t have to wait excessive amounts of time to be treated.” Thoughtful and thorough. Marangi explains that The Ahmanson Foundation has been a major supporter of the hospital in the past. “It has contributed to a variety of other projects,” he says, “including the cardiac rehabilitation center, which I use regularly myself. It’s an exceptionally fine foundation, supporting a great many organizations in Southern California. It has a very fine board and they are very aware of the importance of high-quality medical care. “In addition,” he says, “The Ahmanson Foundation is very thorough in its evaluation of applications and has an extremely professional staff. The foundation’s gift will make a huge difference in our ability to move forward with work on the Emergency & Trauma Center,” he adds. “We’re also optimistic that it will encourage other supporters to join with us, because of the respect they have for the foundation and its thoughtful, thorough evaluation of the need for projects it funds.” All told, in fact, The Ahmanson Foundation receives about 1,200 requests annually. In 2006, the most recent year for which this information is available, it made 481 grants, totaling $39,042,697. Throughout, says Ahmanson, “We take pride not so much in what we do, but in the actions of our grantees.” We are deeply grateful for the foundation’s leadership gift toward Emergency & Trauma Center expansion at Huntington Hospital and proud to have this exceptional philanthropic institution as a partner in our work. Harriet and Jim Fullerton demonstrate their gratitude for Huntington Hospital’s exceptional care through their generous philanthropic support. Their most recent gift was designated toward expansion of the hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center. leadership Onward and Upward… The Best is Yet to Come: James D. and Harriet P. Fullerton Share Their Blessings At James D. Fullerton’s 90th birthday party, the celebratory video presentation was entitled “Why is this Man Smiling?” The conundrum was partly resolved during a tribute speech by Paul Haaga: “Even when something negative does happen, Jim’s optimism eventually overwhelms it.” [ advocate 7 ] [ 8 summer 2008 ] And it is hard to imagine anyone with more optimism (an optimism that Haaga notes is “always tempered by and actually founded upon realism”) than Jim Fullerton. His motto: “Onward and upward. The best is yet to come!” At the age of 91, he is a wellspring of humorous stories, upbeat observations and laughter. Jim is currently writing a novel — You Should Have Been With Us When We Had the Horses. The novel’s title refers to his experience in the U.S. Army during World War II, during which he was assigned to the 76th field artillery battalion. “It was the last horse-drawn battalion in the U.S. Army,” he points out. “We were posted in the desert about six miles north of the Mexican border. The Army provided us with French seventy-five-millimeter guns, model 1897! There were four hundred forty-eight horses tied to the picket lines. I felt like I’d slipped into a time warp.” While Jim subsequently was serving in Europe, his wife, Harriet, served as a volunteer at the Army hospital in Pasadena, housed in what is now the Ninth Circuit District Court on Grand Avenue. Having enlisted as a $21-a-month private, Jim was released four years later as a major with four battle stars, a bronze star medal and, he notes, an “undying gratitude that I was still alive.” Returning to the United States, he tried his hand at writing short stories and humor pieces, which he marketed to national magazines. “I thought The Atlantic and The New Yorker were just waiting for me,” he jokes, “but it turned out they weren’t.” Fortunately, others were, but they were somewhat less prestigious. And so Jim did what any sensible person might do under the circumstances: He moved his pregnant wife and 2-year-old daughter to Mexico. “As a graduate of Harvard Business School,” he explains, “I made the strategic business decision that it would take longer to starve to death in Mexico on the same amount of money.” Nonetheless, funds did run out two years later, and the family returned to Pasadena where Jim had grown up and where his family has lived for nearly 100 years. Drawing on his prior education and experience in business and finance, Jim joined Capital Research & Management Company, which subsequently became The Capital Group Companies, Inc. He later went on to serve as chairman of Capital Group, a position he held for 11 years. The Mexico Years. Of brain surgery and grilled cheese sandwiches. Both Jim and Harriet Fullerton have relied on Huntington Hospital for care over the years — and have demonstrated their gratitude through generous philanthropic support. Most recently, they added to this support through a leadership gift toward expansion of the hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center. Jim recalls a recent visit he made to the center. “I was walking my dog and she leapt at a Lab who was just standing there minding its own business,” he says. “The leash wrapped ’round my ankles and I ended up damaging a Pasadena curbstone with my head. I don’t hold it against her,” he laughs. “Throughout our life together, Harriet and I have been owned by eleven different dogs, which have filled our household with love and joy and laughter.” Jim was promptly taken to Huntington’s Emergency & Trauma Center where he met William L. Caton, III, MD, a neurosurgeon on staff at the hospital. “Bill Caton kept constant, close track of me,” says Jim. “As a result, when a subsequent MRI brain scan showed a subdural hematoma had developed, he scheduled me for immediate surgery. Had Dr. Caton not been so vigilant and decisive, I would probably not still be around.” [ advocate 9 ] Jim Fullerton credits William L. Caton III, MD (pictured left), with saving his life following a head injury. While not minimizing the serious nature of the subsequent surgeries he underwent, Jim jokes, “The last one I had was really more of a transplant. I got the brain of an intelligent white rat and he got mine. While the rat’s completing my novel on a specially modified computer, I’ve been able to create three recipes for grilled cheese sandwiches.” Helping the whole of Pasadena. When asked to account for his unquenchable zest for life (in our hope that it might somehow be bottled) Jim says, “Well, 65 years ago, I married a beautiful Stanford co‑ed whom I’d met on a blind date two years earlier. She’s still beautiful. We’re still married.” Jim claims Harriet once got up early, put on some lipstick, brushed her hair and put a gardenia in it. “She thought that when I woke up, I’d think she looked like that every morning,” he says, adding, “After 65 years of marriage, she still does…. (We think the marriage is going to work.)” Over the years, says Jim, “Huntington Hospital has taken wonderful care of us and we love it.” Two of the Fullertons’ children were born at the hospital. In addition, Jim’s mother, father, brother, sister and all his nieces have been patients at one time or another. “I can think of no other organization that does more for more people in Pasadena than Huntington Hospital,” Jim says. “If we really want to help the whole of Pasadena, I believe we should support the hospital…and that’s what we’ve decided to do.” [ advocate 10 ] Paul and Heather Haaga list Huntington Hospital’s excellence, vision and good stewardship among the reasons for their support. They have recently provided funding toward the hospital’s new inpatient tower and toward the endowment for nursing education. leadership Helping Huntington Hospital Go from Good to Great: Heather and Paul Haaga From their professional accomplishments, to their work as founding fundraisers involved in the creation of the Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial in Washington, DC, to their involvement in numerous local charities, Heather and Paul Haaga are obviously high achievers of the first order. (Did we mention Heather’s accomplishments as a fine artist, or the 21 marathons Paul has completed?) In meeting the couple, however, what strikes you first is their sense of humility, coupled with extremely good humor. They do what they do because it’s fun. And they have translated that fun into literally millions of dollars raised — and contributed — to charitable causes over the years. “Working with nonprofits,” says Paul, “you meet the best people…similarly motivated to get outside their own interests to help other people.” And while the couple agree that truly thoughtful involvement can be challenging, “After doing this for so many years, you finally feel like you’re able to provide some value added in the board room,” says Heather. “You’ve been on the planet long enough to identify the salient issues.” “And that makes it even more and more fun!” adds Paul. [ advocate 11 ] No wilting laurels! The Haagas note that, given the many potential targets for their philanthropic involvement, they tend to have long discussions about which charities to support. Recently, they renewed their support for Huntington Hospital with gifts toward the new patient tower and endowment for nursing education. “One of the hallmarks is choosing an institution that’s poised for greatness,” says Heather. Paul, who serves as vice chairman — and chairman of the Executive Committee — of Capital Research and Management Company, cites The Capital Group Companies’ retired founder and chief executive officer, Jonathan B. Lovelace. “He used to say that nothing wilts faster than laurels rested upon,” says Paul. “With that in mind, we like to give to organizations that are striving to do more.” And in addition to their contributions to Huntington Hospital, the Haagas are also helping a host of other organizations to “do more.” Heather is a trustee of Princeton Theological Seminary and a co-chair of their campaign for a new library, for example. She also serves on the Art Committee of the Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens and is a trustee of Berea College. The latter is a liberal arts college founded prior to the civil war. It was ahead of its time in providing education to black and white, male and female students. The Haagas met some of the college’s extraordinary students, from extremely impoverished and primarily Appalachian families. So impressed were the couple that they have provided support toward creation of Haaga House — transforming a 19th-century farmhouse to serve as the college’s admissions office. Paul is also involved in the capital campaign for Polytechnic School, where he was a longtime board member. He is president of the Natural History Museum’s board of trustees, and chairs the board of overseers at the University of Pennsylvania Law School. He is president and major gifts chairman of his class at Princeton University and chairs the Los Angeles Region for the university’s new capital campaign. While this list is by no means all-inclusive, it gives some sense of the Haagas’ busy schedule. In addition, says Paul, “One of the things I’ve tried to do at The Capital Group is to encourage younger people to be involved. That’s the real legacy,” he adds. “You can only do so much yourself, but if you can inspire others to get involved, you really extend the scope of your impact.” This inspiration to get involved has not been lost on the Haagas’ children, Blythe and Paul III, who are active in their own spheres — Paul III at Stanford University, where he is a second-year MBA student and Blythe in Chicago, Illinois, where she works as a communications consultant. In addition to their other contributions to the community, Blythe is this year co-chairing the Huntington Ball at Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens with her mother and Paul III is chairing the annual Challenge for Charity at Stanford Business School. Extending the legacy. As they reflect further on their support for Huntington Hospital, the Haagas emphasize the care they and their family have received here over the years. Heather underwent surgery on her spine at the hospital, without which she believes she probably would not be walking today. In addition, her father was treated at the hospital following a stroke in 2007. “That helped us gain a special appreciation for the work of the hospital’s nurses,” says Paul. “They’re at the front end of care, and they did a great job for him. We want to make sure they continue to be available for other patients in the future,” he explains, in reference to the couple’s support toward the endowment for nursing education at the hospital. “When you’re picking places to be involved,” Paul adds, “you choose excellence, you choose vision and you choose good stewardship…and you’ve got all three at Huntington Hospital. Just look at the list of other people who’ve been involved and you see that careful philanthropists have been there ahead of you. So join the club!” Supporting excellence. [ 12 summer 2008 ] leadership Dale and Stephanie Harvey SCRUB Up A longtime investment advisor and founder of Poplar Forest Capital, J. Dale Harvey describes his family’s philanthropic involvement at Huntington Hospital as making plain business sense: “Part of my job,” he says, “is to identify companies with long-term potential.” He notes that he and his wife, Stephanie, use that same lens in their philanthropy. “It’s obvious to us that Huntington Hospital is one of the best in the region,” he adds, “and investing in a great organization to make it even better seems like a very smart use of our money.” In fact, Stephanie and Dale are among a small group that helped form SCRUBS, a support group of the hospital that helps raise funds and awareness among a new generation of donors. Stephanie notes that the couple’s motivation for involvement comes from both personal experience and a concern for com- Opposite page, from left: Lucy, Caroline, Dale, Preston and Stephanie. For all members of the Harvey family, charitable giving and volunteering are a way of life. [ advocate 13 ] munity. “There are lots of charities in Pasadena that deserve our assistance and are important to us,” she says, “but the hospital is a necessity.” In fact, all three of the Harveys’ children were born at Huntington Hospital, and their family has turned to the hospital on several other occasions for care. “Our first trip to the emergency department, for example, was when our oldest child was sixteen months old,” says Dale, “and our most recent trip was in fall 2007. “Our experiences have all been positive,” he adds, “but we’ve heard stories of others who wanted to go to Huntington Hospital but had their ambulance diverted because the emergency department was full. There’s a very clear need to expand that service,” he emphasizes. To help address the need, the Harveys have provided a generous gift toward expansion of the hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center. “Huntington Hospital houses the only trauma center in our entire region,” says Stephanie. “Expansion of the Emergency & Trauma Center is such a tangible need — such a tangible thing to invest in.” Their contribution also allows the Harveys to accomplish an important personal goal: to teach their children — Caroline, 12, Preston, 10, and Lucy, 8 — about the importance of giving. The youngsters’ weekly allowance is divided into three parts: a third to save, a third to spend on whatever they want, and a third to give to charity. “We let them give to whatever cause captures their attention,” explains Stephanie. All three children like animals, for example, so about 18 months ago, they pooled their money and made a gift to the Pasadena Humane Society & SPCA. “And Preston has heard a lot about global warming, lately,” says Dale, “so he wants to give to trees.” Adds Dale, “It’s not just about giving money, but about giving time. They see that mommy’s willing to contribute her time to volunteer at the hospital because it’s important.” Stephanie agrees. “When we bring the kids in for tests and check-ups, we always bump into a lot of people we know,” she adds. “It’s nice to be a part of your medical facility, and not a stranger.” A family value. While Stephanie is a California native, Dale grew up in a small town in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. Both are enthusiastic about life in Pasadena, which they describe as “an amazing community.” Each of them is helping to make it an even better place, through their community and philanthropic involvement. Both Dale and Stephanie have been involved with Foothill Family Services, for example. Dale served as chair of that organization for two years and remains on the board. He is also a trustee at both Polytechnic School, attended by all three of the couple’s children, and at Harvey Mudd College. Stephanie is a member of The Friends of Foothill Family and has been involved in the Pasadena Children’s Guild, Polytechnic School and numerous other organizations. The Harveys cherish Huntington Hospital as part of their community. “Growing up in Virginia,” Dale recalls, “going to the hospital really felt like a business transaction. But Huntington Hospital is our hospital.” “It’s nice to feel this way about your hospital when you hear so many stories about other hospitals that are not doing so well,” adds Stephanie. Stephanie and Dale believe strongly that each generation has a responsibility to do its part in sustaining this vital community resource. “We inherited this amazing asset from our parents’ generation,” notes Stephanie, “and we need to make sure it will stay that way for our children.” Adds Dale, “There’s an old Boy Scout rule: ‘Leave your campsite better than you found it.’ The last generation did such a beautiful job with this hospital, and now it’s in our custody. Let’s leave this campsite even better than we found it.” A sense of connection. [ 14 summer 2008 ] leadership Vi Jacobs Makes Giving a Family Value Violet J. Jacobs’ generous support toward Huntington Hospital’s endowment for nursing education and toward expansion of our Emergency & Trauma Center continues a strong family tradition of philanthropy. Vi — along with her late husband Joseph J. Jacobs, and the couple’s daughters, Margaret E. Jacobs, Linda K. Jacobs, PhD, and Valerie Jacobs Hapke — created the Jacobs Family Foundation in 1989. Through the foundation and Vi and Joe’s personal gifts, the family has made a difference at Huntington Hospital, providing significant leadership support toward heart care services, the hospital’s recently opened patient tower, and the endowment for nursing education. In recognition of this extremely generous involvement, we have been proud to name the Violet and Joseph Jacobs Family Waiting Room within our east patient tower. [ advocate 15 ] In recognition of Vi Jacobs’ generosity and that of her late husband, Joseph, the hospital recently named the Violet and Joseph Jacobs Family Waiting Room in the east patient tower. As a first-generation Lebanese-American born to hardworking immigrant parents in Brooklyn, New York, Vi learned from an early age to value hard work and the personal rewards of a job well done. Joe, in his book Anatomy of an Entrepreneur, wrote that, through her “standards of morality, of integrity, and of almost ruthless honesty…she reinforced and solidified in me the old family standards.” Such standards served the couple well as they achieved ever-greater success over the years. Vi received a language degree from Wellesley College where she excelled in French, German, and classical Greek. After working in advertising, she joined her husband in founding Jacobs Engineering Group in 1947. What began as a small engineering consultancy has since grown to become a $6-billion international engineering and construction corporation. When Jacobs Engineering Group went public, Vi and Joe discussed the financial implications for their family. Again, their long-held values guided their decision-making, as the couple decided the greatest gift they could give their three daughters and themselves was the gift of giving to others. Setting the standard for giving. Serving others with dignity. In deciding to form the Jacobs Family Foundation, the Jacobs’ goals went beyond giving back to the community. In particular, their philosophy of giving emphasized the idea of a hand up, rather than a mere handout. The foundation’s philanthropy emphasizes respect for the dignity and power of each person to make a better future for themselves, given the right tools. And the foundation strives to provide such tools through thoughtful support of local community organizations. From the outset, the Jacobs’ daughters were enthusiastic about their parents’ philanthropic plans. Today, daughter Meg serves as a board member of the Jacobs Family Foundation and its sister organization, the Jacobs Center for Neighborhood Innovation. In 1998, the latter organization began work on creation of the Village at Market Creek, a 60-acre family-centered community development within the heavily urbanized area of southeastern San Diego. In keeping with the Jacobs’ values and philosophy of philanthropy, community residents are themselves working to design and plan the development. Daughter Linda serves as director emerita of the Jacobs Engineering Group and is immediate past president of the Near East Foundation, where she oversaw programs that address poverty and its related ills in northern Africa and the Middle East. Valerie, a licensed marriage and family therapist, serves on the boards of both the Jacobs Family Foundation and the Jacobs Center for Neighborhood Innovation. She is also founder of Family Philanthropy Resource, which provides consultation to individual philanthropists and foundations. In addition to her work with the Jacobs Family Foundation, Vi has also continued to serve the community in other ways over the years, volunteering with the American Friends Service Committee, Meals on Wheels, and the Westminster Presbyterian Church, for example. She also served as an active volunteer with the Altadena Guild, helping to generate additional, important support for the work of Huntington Hospital. And throughout, she has remained a tireless champion of economic and educational development in her parents’ native Lebanon. As Vi’s late husband once said, “I am a proud man acknowledging that whatever we have achieved, we have achieved as a family.” Huntington Hospital is deeply grateful that the Jacobs have also embraced Huntington Hospital as part of their family. Their generous support continues to make a meaningful difference to patients throughout our region. Continuing the tradition of giving. [ 16 summer 2008 ] After losing her grandmother to cancer, fifth grader Harper Morphy (left) and her friend Samantha Sohl created Kids Koins for Cancer, raising funds in support of enhanced cancer care at Huntington Hospital. [ advocate 17 ] commitment Kids Donate Koins for Cancer Harper Morphy is a fifth grader at Mayfield Junior School. That may seem a little young for someone to be spearheading a fundraiser to help enhance cancer care. But, along with her friend Samantha Sohl, Harper has done just that. The project began as a gentle remonstrance in the Morphy home. “When anyone in my family said a bad word, I made them put a dollar in a jar,” Harper explains. After a while, she had raised $90, which she donated in memory of her grandmother, Betsy Morphy, who was a victim of cancer. Anxious to clear her family’s reputation, Harper hastens to explain that some family members put in more than a dollar at a time — and thus the $90 does not represent a full 90 bad words uttered! Harper decided to contribute the funds to Huntington Hospital, where her grandmother had received care. “I thought it would be nice to make other people with cancer happier,” says Harper, poignantly, “even though we didn’t get a chance to make her happier.” Harper told Samantha about her home-based fundraising project, and the two decided to expand it by approaching their classmates for gifts. “Our fourth-grade teacher had had cancer, and so we thought it would be a good idea to do it at school and that she’d be proud of us and we could help her,” recalls Samantha. And so Kids Koins for Cancer was born. Harper and Samantha enlisted their parents’ help in creating publicity fliers and made a joint presentation to their class. “Some kids put in a little, and some kids put in a lot,” recalls Samantha, “but pretty much everyone donated.” At the end of the school year, Harper and Samantha came to Huntington Hospital to deliver the funds raised — more than $300 — in person. “It felt good to be able to do this,” says Harper. “I learned that something small can become a huge thing and make a big difference.” “A lot of fifth graders might not think they could do something like this for the hospital,” adds Samantha. “But tell them they can do it if they just try really, really hard.” [ 18 summer 2008 ] commitment Paul and Sherrill Colony Support Lifesaving Care Paul V. and Sherrill L. Colony have spent considerable time at Huntington Hospital — most of it for happy events. “All of our children were born there,” Sherrill explains, “and our two grandchildren.” In fact, the Colonys’ granddaughter required care in the hospital’s neonatal intensive care unit. “I visited every day and I was just amazed with the care those nurses and doctors provided,” recalls Sherrill. “I was really impressed by what I saw.” In appreciation, the Colonys made a gift designated toward NICU care. “If you’re a parent with a newborn requiring special care, where else can you turn?” Sherrill notes. But the Colonys’ first contact with Huntington Hospital came about by accident — quite literally — when, 40 years ago, Paul ran his hand through a saw. “And of course we’ve An accidental friendship. [ advocate 19 ] After granddaughter Caroline Mitchell received care in the hospital’s neonatal intensive care unit, the Colonys designated a gift to the unit showing their appreciation for the care she received. Paul and Sherrill Colony are pictured opposite with Caroline (far right) and their grandson, Connor Mitchell. been to the emergency department a number of times since,” adds Paul. “I guess everyone in this area who has children has used that emergency department at least once!” Today, the Colonys continue to give back. They have provided support toward expansion of the hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center, for example, as well as generous unrestricted support. In recognition of their recent involvement, the hospital has named the Sherrill and Paul Colony Patient Suite in the new west patient tower. “We’ve used the hospital well,” says Sherrill, “and it’s been good to us. This is evidently the hospital that people in Pasadena rely on when they have medical needs — whether planned or unplanned. In turn, the hospital relies heavily on financial support from the community to do its work.” The Colonys’ daughter Kristin and her husband Kinden Mitchell are also philanthropically involved — as active members of SCRUBS, a group that helps raise awareness and financial support for the hospital. The group is initially focusing on raising funds toward essential expansion of the hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center. Both natives of Los Angeles, the Colonys met during their college years and have spent most of their married life in the San Marino and Pasadena areas. Paul continues to serve as vice chairman of Aon Worldwide Resources. With a little more time available now that he is semi-retired, he continues to collect classic cars. “People buy this kind of car for two reasons,” says Paul of his eclectic collection, “to drive or to show.” Then he adds, “Well, then there’s reason number three: to work on them.” While he claims his tinkering days are over, Paul nonetheless recently completed a new garage — and workshop — to house his treasures. And its design left ample space for Sherrill’s passion — her rose garden. Work…play… The Colonys have both been highly active in the community over the years. Sherrill, for example, was a member of Assistance League of Pasadena, and is now a sustaining member. She was also a member of National Charity League, San Marino Area Chapter, and she is currently a member of THE MUSES — a support group for the California Science Center. Over the course of his career in the insurance industry, Paul has also given back through volunteer involvement, having been active on the boards for EPICC (Exposition Park Intergenerational Community Center); the California Science Center; the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce; the Boy Scouts of America, Los Angeles Area Council; and the California Hospital Medical Center Foundation. Throughout, the Colonys are continuing their support for Huntington Hospital. “We’re committed to the hospital because of the medical care and education it provides to people who couldn’t otherwise afford those things,” explains Paul. “I’ve spent a fair amount of time sitting in the hospital’s emergency department, for example,” adds Sherrill. “I’ve seen the need for its services firsthand, and I don’t see how anyone living in this community can ignore it.” …and giving back. [ 20 summer 2008 ] commitment Community Vitality: For Rod Shingu, It’s a Matter of Sharing Rod Shingu has served as a volunteer patient representative at Huntington Hospital for more than six years. “After retiring from work, I experienced a major sense of emptiness,” he says. “Once you’ve done all the travels and other things you wanted, you still have a desire to do something good. For me,” he adds, “that meant participating and contributing to Huntington Hospital.” Having worked as a senior administrator at Los Angeles County+University of Southern California Medical Center, Shingu felt comfortable in a hospital environment. In addition, because he grew up in Pasadena and lives in close proximity to Huntington Hospital, “Huntington was just my place,” he says. Shingu assists patients and their families in the critical care unit, definitive observation unit and brain-mapping program. “Overwhelmingly,” he says, “the comments I hear concern the professionalism and special care that our doctors, nurses, therapists, technicians and support staff provide.” Then, three years ago, he adds, “The compassion people had spoken about to me, I experienced first-hand.” [ advocate 21 ] Opposite page: As a volunteer patient representative at Huntington Hospital, Rod Shingu uses his past experience as a senior hospital administrator to assist families and patients in several hospital departments. Demonstrating genuine care. Shingu’s brother became critically ill and required admission to the hospital’s critical care unit. “The precision and speed with which he was transferred to the unit and began receiving care was more than remarkable…it was lifesaving,” Shingu recalls, “and in the midst of my own emotional turmoil, the nurses and therapists were always by my side. They gave me frequent reports as if I were one of their own. If I failed to understand, they taught me. Their expressions of concern and care were genuine and that kept my spirits and my hopes high. They took such good care of me,” he adds. “Imagine what more they do for their real patients!” In early 2008, Shingu himself required care at Huntington Hospital. Always fascinated with science and medicine, he researched his condition — and the prescribed treatment — thoroughly. Still, the level of professionalism he witnessed here surprised him. “The care was just incredible,” he says. Shingu was born on August 6 — the day Hiroshima was bombed — in an internment camp, where his parents had been required to move from their home in the Los Angeles area. His mother and father had both been widowed prior to displacement. They met, married and started their new family during their time at the camp, moving the family to Pasadena after World War II ended. When asked how it is that, despite those early life experiences, Shingu lacks any sense of bitterness — and feels so compelled to give back to his community — he explains, “Bitterness can take energy away from doing good. It’s easy to fall into that trap…but what for? I have an uncle who earned the Purple Heart in Italy,” he adds. “Many close friends and relatives served. Every American at that time felt that sense of patriotism and my family just rode that wave.” Benevolence, not bitterness. Shingu is impressed by the latest care enhancements at Huntington Hospital. He points, for example, to a new protocol that speeds care for patients suffering acute myocardial infarction. “I’m sure it’s saved dozens of lives,” he says. “In the course of my visits with patients, I’ve come across several who entered the hospital through this protocol. One gentleman had to be defibrillated four times in the ambulance. His condition was very grave…but by the time we spoke, he looked really good. I’m certain this new protocol was a lifesaver for him. “My feeling is that the vitality of the community really depends on the wellness of the people within that community,” he concludes. To support our own community’s wellness, Shingu not only volunteers here, but has also named Huntington Hospital the beneficiary of a life insurance policy. And he continues to provide annual support at the President’s Circle level. Because “sharing contributes to the wellness of the donor as well as the recipient,” Shingu says, “getting involved ultimately enhances the vitality of the community as a whole. As a result, if I can inspire even one more person to make a donation or volunteer a few hours a week,” he adds, “I’ll feel really good.” Increasingly important care. [ 22 summer 2008 ] William and Cynthia Wang have provided support toward expansion of Huntington Hospital’s essential Emergency & Trauma Center in the form of a generous gift annuity. commitment Cynthia T. and William S. Wang Put Huntington Hospital First If you have ever flown in a plane, you have probably been the beneficiary of William (Bill) S. Wang’s work: Before his retirement in 1992, Bill designed an oxygen door latch that is now in use on all U.S. passenger planes. He also holds patents on three devices currently used on the space shuttle. Bill did not originally intend to become an aeronautical engineer. His studies began at the University of Shanghai in 1946, where he majored in business administration. Before his graduation, however, China came under Communist rule. Bill moved to Hong Kong and then to the United States, where his engineering studies commenced. It was during a subsequent trip to Hong Kong that he met another Chinese expatriate. Cynthia T. Loh had moved to Hong Kong to live with her sister. After she and Bill met and married, she followed him to the United States. [ advocate 23 ] Cynthia’s father was an internist and she graduated from St. John’s University in Shanghai with a bachelor of science in chemistry. Upon coming to the United States, she worked in a research laboratory of the University of California, Los Angeles. “I’ve always had a passion for hospitals,” she notes, “perhaps because my father was a doctor.” Ultimately, she left the research laboratory and enrolled in the medical-technologist training program at the Wadsworth Veterans Administration Hospital. Cynthia passed the State of California and American Society of Clinical Pathologists examinations and became a licensed technologist, working first at the V.A. Hospital and then at a physician’s office. The Wangs lived in Marina del Rey for 38 years. While they loved the coastal climate (“We didn’t need air conditioning or heating,” Cynthia explains), they are happy with their move to Pasadena, and enthusiastic about the city’s cultural life. And they are also committed to supporting the community they have called home for three years now. “We thought the most important thing is the hospital, so we got involved there first,” says Cynthia, of the couple’s philanthropic support of Huntington Hospital. In fact, shortly after the Wangs moved to Pasadena, Cynthia woke up with chest pain and was finding it hard to breathe. Bill decided to call the paramedics. “They came within five minutes and put me in the ambulance,” says Cynthia, “and I asked where they were going to take me.” When she was told that ambulances were being diverted from Huntington Hospital to a more distant facility because the hospital’s own Emergency & Trauma Center was full, Cynthia was shocked. “Half way to the other hospital, I insisted they call again…and I was lucky,” she recalls. “Huntington Hospital was able to take me.” But when Cynthia arrived at the hospital, she saw how crowded the Emergency & Trauma Center was — resulting in a long wait for care. “Ever since, I’ve been thinking… this is such a nice hospital, but the wait time in the emergency department is just too long,” Cynthia says. “I talked to Bill about it and we discussed what we could do to help.” The most important thing. Bill had already developed a good impression of the hospital, thanks to the input of a friend who had been an inpatient. Subsequently, he and Cynthia toured the Emergency & Trauma Center and Bill also had the opportunity to tour the new west tower. “It’s a wonderful facility,” he says, “and it houses the best of medical technology.” Not only that, he adds. “The patients also have a view! Even the cafeteria is impressive!” Impressed by the quality of care at Huntington Hospital, the Wangs have contributed toward expansion of the hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center. This project, designed to reduce wait times and ambulance diversions, is something the Wangs feel is very important. “People come here when it’s a matter of life or death,” notes Cynthia. “The hospital is important to the whole community, and we feel happy we can contribute to the hospital and so help this community in the process,” she adds. “Everyone gets sick. If we don’t have a good hospital, we’re not safe, so I hope more people can do something to help.” Important to the whole community. Cynthia T. and William S. Wang made their contribution to Huntington Hospital in the form of a gift annuity. One of the most popular life-income vehicles available, the gift annuity provides substantial longterm benefits to the hospital. At the same time, notes Jack Brickson, the hospital’s director of planned giving, “The donor enjoys an income for life, much of it tax-free.” Gift annuities provide an attractive rate of return, furthermore, with the specific rate determined based on the donor or donors’ age at the time of the gift. “And,” says Brickson, “donors also enjoy an income tax deduction in the year the gift is made.” [ 24 summer 2008 ] PRESIDENT ’ S CIRCLE compassion Dinner Event Provides Information that’s Good for the Heart President’s Circle members and guests recently learned about some of the latest minimally invasive procedures available for heart patients at Huntington Hospital. Alex Durairaj, MD, a specialist in such procedures, was the speaker at a special President’s Circle dinner seminar, and emphasized that generous donors like those in attendance help to ensure that the hospital remains at the leading edge of care. Dr. Durairaj noted that heart disease is still the number-one cause of death in the United States, ahead of the next five causes combined. However, doctors understand much more about the disease than Opposite page at top, left to right: Nancy and Perry Preusch, event guests.

Below, left to right: Earl Nation, MD, and Russ Smith. (Sadly, Dr. Nation passed away in January 2008.) Elliot and Marcia Sainer with Huntington Hospital President and CEO Stephen A. Ralph. [ advocate 25 ] they did 10 years ago. “We used to think you would slowly develop plaque sometime in your fifties or sixties and it would keep going and eventually choke off the artery and cause heart attacks and strokes,” he said. Physicians have now discovered, he added, “that when you first start laying out plaque, the body hides it from us, as the blood vessels actually grow wider to accommodate the plaque.” Only when quite a lot of plaque has already accumulated does it begin to encroach on the blood vessel, he said. Angiograms and stress tests may thus show normal results even when plaque is present, because the plaque is “hiding” in the artery. It is thus possible, Dr. Durairaj noted, for a patient to have a normal angiogram one day and a heart attack the next. To improve detection, Huntington Hospital has introduced newer technologies such as ultrasound and CT scans. Dr. Durairaj showed images obtained using these technologies, demonstrating how plaque that was invisible using traditional techniques could now be detected. Dr. Durairaj went on to discuss how to stabilize plaque once it has begun to form. It turns out, he noted, that the best advice for maintaining a healthy heart is still the oldest: “Stopping smoking, controlling our blood pressure, lowering our cholesterol, exercising, eating right, controlling our diabetes if we have it, and taking all our medications on time,” are the only things that really help, he says. “But, while these things can forestall the plaque, they can’t stop it.” Thus, while lifestyle changes make an enormous difference in mortality risk, continued advances in medical care can also play an essential role in prolonging life. Dr. Durairaj went on to provide a brief history of coronary angiography. “It used to be, the only way to treat a patient with narrowing of an artery was with major surgery,” he said. Then, approximately 30 years ago, angioplasty was introduced. Angioplasty techniques have since been further advanced through the use of stents, drug-coated stents and other innovations. Early warning signs. Dr. Durairaj next discussed an entirely new field of cardiology, which involves minimally invasive intervention for structural heart disease. “Such newer techniques are mostly available at university hospitals,” he said, “but thanks to support from President’s Circle members and other donors, Huntington Hospital is now introducing these techniques.” For example, Huntington Hospital already provides a minimally invasive treatment for patients who have been diagnosed with a hole in the heart. “By using a percutaneous closure device, we can close the passage without resorting to open heart surgery,” said Dr. Durairaj, adding that “the patient goes home the next day, with the ability to resume their previous activity level.” Huntington Hospital is also using angioplasty techniques to open narrowed heart valves — and Dr. Durairaj also discussed investigational work that has the potential to actually create a new, artificial heart valve…without the need for surgery. “Huntington Hospital is one of the few medical centers in the area that has the ability to start a program like this,” Dr. Durairaj told attendees, “and that’s because of donors like you.” The latest developments. President’s Circle dinner seminars provide members with unique opportunities to obtain insider health information and to learn about leading-edge programs and services of Huntington Hospital. The next seminar is scheduled for Wednesday, September 17, at San Gabriel Country Club. [ 26 summer 2008 ] Carol and Warner Henry appreciate that Huntington Hospital is here to provide medical care when needed. Through their unrestricted philanthropic support, they are helping to ensure that care continues. [ advocate 27 ] PRESIDENT ’ S CIRCLE compassion Carol and Warner W. Henry: Supporting Culture and Great Care When Carol and Warner Henry began thinking about a move from their former home in Hancock Park, they considered several communities, including Pasadena. “We had several friends here,” says Carol, “and found we were spending a lot of time in the area. After a while,” she adds, “I realized that every time I drove through the tunnel on the way to Pasadena, I stopped gnashing my teeth and relaxed.” After some discussion, the couple thus decided to settle here. They have been local residents for approximately 15 years. Following their move to Pasadena, the Henrys began looking for physicians in the area. “It’s always a difficult thing to change doctors,” says Carol. “Lois Matthews was the realtor who helped us find our house and she then helped us find our first doctors over here, too.” Matthews is currently chairman of the hospital’s board of directors and was already closely involved with the hospital at the time. In part as a result, she had come to know many physicians in the community and provided the Henrys with recommendations that met their needs. And as the couple began to obtain their medical care in Pasadena, “It also seemed appropriate to direct a portion of our support to Huntington Hospital,” says Warner. The couple’s gifts have been unrestricted — to be used wherever the need is greatest. “Given our involvement in raising funds for many other organizations in the region, we know unrestricted support is really valuable,” explains Carol. [ 28 summer 2008 ] In fact, the Henrys are deeply involved across the greater Los Angeles community. Warner, for example, was involved in the founding of the Los Angeles Master Chorale and served on its board. Today, he serves on the board of the Colburn School, plus Camerata Pacifica, and he and Carol support this and five other chamber ensembles in the area. Carol is president of the board of directors of Los Angeles Opera, while Warner serves as vice chairman of the board and chair of its Marketing Committee. Carol’s participation in the work of the opera began 25 years ago, when she was invited by two local residents to get involved. (Thanks to the couple’s leadership support, both Warner and Carol have been the lucky recipients of a “happy birthday” serenade from the opera’s Eli and Edythe Broad General Director, Placido Domingo!) The Henrys also share a passion for the visual arts and for arts education. Carol, for example, has been a board member of Pasadena Arts Alliance since moving to Pasadena. She and Warner also support the University of Southern California Thornton School of Music, Art Center College of Design and The Colburn School, as well as a number of other organizations. An indelible imprint on the arts. Growing success. Warner Henry is chairman, CEO and owner of The Henry Wine Group, the largest independent wholesaler of premium wines in the United States. He previously operated two other businesses — W.W. Henry Company, a manufacturer of construction adhesives, and Henry Company, a producer of roofing products. He sold both of these concerns, one in the mid 1980s, and the other in 2005. His interest in wine began some years ago through his involvement with the California Club, where he chaired the Wine and Food Committee. “That began when I was in my thirties,” he says. “Then I got involved in selecting and presenting wines for the Los Angeles Olympic Host Committee in 1984 and through that worked with people in the wine industry.” Building on this experience, Warner established the Henry Wine Group in 1985. Carol’s background is in the field of education. She served as an elementary school teacher in Manhattan Beach for four years after graduation — up until the Henrys started their own family. And she also worked intermittently as a substitute teacher while the couple’s children were in school. The Henrys have three children and six grandchildren, all of whom live in Northern California. While the Henrys have used a variety of Huntington Hospital services, neither has been an inpatient at the hospital. “The good news is, we haven’t needed inpatient care…yet,” notes Carol. Nonetheless, the couple describes their support for the hospital as a combination of philanthropy and enlightened self-interest. “There are a number of reasons to get involved,” says Carol. “From a purely selfish standpoint, the hospital you support is also the hospital that will support you when you have a medical need. At some point, our lives are quite likely to depend on the availability of the best care possible, and we want that care to be right here in our own back yard,” she adds. “If we can support that care, we’re helping ourselves, but more importantly we are helping others in the community who also depend on their local hospital to provide the highest level of care. We are proud to be a part of the support system for such an important and growing institution.” Helping the hospital to help us. Peggy and Bob Hemmings believe they have a responsibility to give back to their community. They achieve this, in part, through generous philanthropic support of local organizations including Huntington Hospital. [ advocate 29 ] PRESIDENT ’ S CIRCLE compassion Peggy and Bob Hemmings: Staying Active and Involved “Tonsils, hernias, hips, shoulders, pacemaker…two cancer operations last year….” Bob Hemmings is checking off the care he has received at Huntington Hospital since he moved to Pasadena in 1923. His wife, Peggy, moved here a year later. Through a variety of additional care, “plus two babies born at the hospital, we’ve been well taken care of,” she says. [ 30 summer 2008 ] Thus, when the couple was invited to an exploratory meeting to discuss the creation of an early fundraising group known as the Huntington Society, “I said, ‘Why keep discussing it? Let’s make our gift commitments,’” says Bob. The two have been donors at the President’s Circle level ever since. Peggy and Bob Hemmings were married on November 18, 1944. A year to the day later, their oldest daughter, Ann, was born. Bob was serving as a U.S. Marine in the South Pacific at the time, but managed to get home on leave at 8 p.m. on November 17. “Two hours later, we took Peggy to the hospital, and the baby was born the next day,” he recalls. “Later, Ann would tell friends, ‘Today’s my birthday…the day my mummy and daddy were married.’” Even in Southern California, that raised a few eyebrows in those days. Today, Ann lives in San Diego, where she teaches kindergarten. A second daughter, Jill, lives in Durango, Colorado. The Hemmings have six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. Family life. Despite a long and successful career, Bob Hemmings seems to have no plans for retirement. He remains active in the business field he entered in 1945, following his discharge from the U.S. Marine Corps. In addition to running Hemmings IV Direct, he leads approximately 15 seminars on marketing and advertising across the United States each year. He is considering expanding his lecture circuit to include China and Saudi Arabia, in the future. Locally, Bob is also known for his longtime involvement with the Tournament of Roses. He has chaired several committees, including the Queen and Court Committee, and remains an honorary director of the organization. He was also president of the Advertising Club of Los Angeles, and served as president of both the Rotary Club of Los Angeles and the Advertising Association of the West. In addition, he previously served as a board member of Huntington Hospital’s Senior Care Network, which helps older and disabled adults and their families to remain healthy and independent. Peggy is a former president of Assistance League of Southern California, where she served on the Executive Committee for 22 years and is still active as a board member and volunteer. She has also served as president of the Braille Institute and been active with the Freedoms Foundation at Valley Forge, a nonprofit organization dedicated to teaching young people about the rights and responsibilities of citizenship. Active involvement. Through his extensive experience in both marketing and fundraising, Bob has developed a very firm idea of what motivates people to act or to get involved. “They might say, surely it’s good for mankind…but what’s in it for me? They may say, how does it make me feel about myself… and what will my neighbors and friends think? However it’s phrased,” he explains, “the prime motivating factor…the reason why people do everything in life…is to try to find happiness and avoid pain. “The good things the hospital has been doing for us make us feel good,” he adds. And thus, Peggy explains, “we do what we can.” “There are several stages in life,” Bob concludes. “There’s the learning stage, the earning stage, and then there’s retirement. Some people look at the last stage as the pay-off years, but I look at it as the giving-back years…which includes teaching the next generation of professionals in your field and giving back to organizations like Huntington Hospital. As Horace Mann said, ‘Be ashamed to die until you have done some good for humanity.’” Happiness and humanity. [ advocate 31 ] Huntington Hospital ophthalmologist Meriel L. Wu, MD, and her husband, Nywood Wu, direct a portion of their philanthropy to the hospital, in order to safeguard high-quality care. Physicians Giving compassion Nywood and Meriel L. Wu, MD, Help Make Life Better for Others For the past 30 years, Huntington Hospital ophthalmologist Meriel L. Wu, MD, has provided life-enhancing care to patients in the San Gabriel Valley. She and her husband, Nywood (Woody) Wu care for our community in other ways as well, by providing generous philanthropic support to Huntington Hospital. Most recently, they designated a gift towards the expansion of the hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center. [ 32 summer 2008 ] A fascinating career. Currently serving her second term as chair of the Huntington Hospital ophthalmology section, Dr. Wu practices with Pasadena Eye Medical Group, Inc. She has extensive experience in treating cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration and other eye problems, and performing LASIK for refractive errors. Many of the procedures that required inpatient surgery in the past, Dr. Wu notes, can now be treated on an outpatient basis. However, she still spends time at Huntington Hospital consulting on eye problems and participating as a member of the hospital’s trauma team, through which she provides surgical intervention for patients with traumatic eye injuries. Dr. Wu remains enthusiastic about her chosen career path. “My uncle was an ophthalmologist and he suggested I consider this field when he heard I was accepted to medical school,” she says. “As I explored further, I found that this was a subspecialty that combined both surgical and medical skills, as well as extensive interaction with patients.” When Dr. Wu describes it, ophthalmology indeed sounds like the most fascinating of careers. “As medical school progressed,” she says, “I learned that the eye incorporates almost every system in the body –– skin, the central nervous system, endocrine glands, boney skeleton, ears, nose and throat — and not just the functions specialized in the eye. You have to know about medical diseases such as diabetes and hypertension that can affect the eyes…the physiology of aging…the physics of optics…the techniques of plastic and microsurgery, laser technology…. The list goes on.” The Wus met during their freshman year in undergraduate school at Stanford University and moved to Pasadena shortly after completing graduate studies on the East Coast (she at the Medical College of Pennsylvania — now Drexel University College of Medicine — and he at the Wharton School of Finance at the University of Pennsylvania, where he obtained his master’s degree in business administration). After energetically pursuing their careers and raising a family, they have now begun to think about how to give back to their community. “We recognize that we’re more fortunate than many others, and giving back can help make life better for someone else,” says Dr. Wu. Making life better. Big-city technology, community care. Huntington Hospital originally attracted Dr. Wu because “It’s a community hospital, established, supported, and utilized by the community, while also providing access to the latest medical advancements and up-to-date medical practices that are often available only in big-city or university hospitals,” she explains. She and her husband now direct a portion of their philanthropy to the hospital, in order to ensure the continuation of high-quality care. As a medical professional working on the hospital’s trauma team, Dr. Wu is aware of how important our Emergency & Trauma Center is to the San Gabriel Valley. As a spouse, parent and active member of the community, she has an even more personal motivation to support its expansion. “Every time I hear an ambulance drive by, I think, ‘What if?’” she says. “What if that were a member of my family or a friend? Would I want them to be turned away from what I know to be the best care in the area? And the answer is ‘No.’” The Clark family (from left Natalie, David, Alexandra and Angelica) expresses appreciation through its support for pediatric intensive care at Huntington Hospital. [ advocate 33 ] President’s Circle compassion Angelica and David Clark Show Appreciation for Lifesaving Care When Alexandra Clark was three months old, she developed a persistent and troubling cough. Frequently, in the middle of the night, her parents, Angelica and Dave, would wake up and hurry to her side. They consulted the family pediatrician. Soon after, they took Alexandra to a respiratory specialist who sent her immediately to Huntington Hospital. [ 34 summer 2008 ] Here, a physician recognized the infant’s symptoms and rushed her to the pediatric intensive care unit where she was intubated for seven days. “They probably saved her life,” says Angelica today. Alexandra had pertusis, or whooping cough — a rare condition in the United States, and particularly unusual given that she had already received her first vaccination to help protect her against the condition. “Sometimes you only get one chance,” says Angelica, in reference to the care that returned her daughter to good health at Huntington Hospital, “so it’s important to have the right doctors, the right facilities, and the right technology.” Thoughtful Investments. Angelica Clark grew up in Kenilworth, Illinois, and came to Claremont, California, to attend Scripps College, where she majored in economics. She went on to become a portfolio manager with Philip V. Swan Associates and subsequently joined Provident Investment Capital as a portfolio manager before becoming chief investment officer with the Ralph M. Parsons Foundation. She is also involved in her family’s manufacturing company, located in Los Angeles. A native of Connecticut, Dave grew up in San Marino, and also majored in economics, obtaining his degree from the University of California, Berkeley, before going on to earn an MBA from the University of Southern California. Today, he serves as president of Everett Harris & Co., an investment counsel firm in Los Angeles. Now residents of Pasadena, the two are actively involved in their community. A rugby player on the University of California, Berkeley’s two-time national championship team, Dave now invests significant time in youth sports as a coach with the American Youth Soccer Organization and Pasadena Southwest Little League. He has coached more than 15 different teams thus far. Angelica, meanwhile, is a board member of Pacific Oaks College & Children’s School, serves as vice chairman of Scripps College’s Investment Committee, and is a member of the Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens Investment Committee. She recently chaired the Finance Committee for the Polytechnic School [ advocate 35 ] Alexandra Clark (right, with younger sister Natalie) has bounced back to good health. Her parents express their gratitude through generous support of Huntington Hospital. Centennial, is a member of the Polytechnic School’s Investment Committee, and has held a number of leadership volunteer roles with other organizations. In the early 1990s, Angelica served on Huntington Hospital’s Planned Giving Committee, including a term as chairman. During that time, she and a fellow committee member, Ann Boutin, created life insurance policies naming the hospital as a beneficiary. “I wanted to make a gift that would become more significant down the line,” she says of the insurance vehicle, “and it was also an opportunity to demonstrate how young people can expand their support for the hospital.” A special connection. In addition to Alexandra, now age 11, the Clarks have a younger daughter, Natalie, age 8. Both girls were born at Huntington Hospital and delivered by Dave’s good friend from high school Shaun P. Grady, MD. In addition, all four of Dave’s nephews and one niece were born at Huntington Hospital. And Angelica’s father received multiple transfusions at the hospital’s Blood Donor Center in summer 2006, during treatment for a rare bone marrow disease. “We feel somewhat of a special connection to the hospital as a result,” says Dave. “It’s our local hospital, and we feel it’s a good thing for us to support.” Adds Angelica, “Many people in the community have children or grandchildren, and all it takes is one life-threatening scare for you to realize how important it is to have pediatric intensive care, the emergency department, trauma care…Huntington Hospital…close by. We all think it will always be there when we need it,” she says, “but it may not be in the condition we need it if we don’t support it.” The Clarks are doing just that, with most of their support over the years directed toward the pediatric intensive care unit that took such good care of daughter Alexandra. “We feel so very grateful for what they did for her when she was so young,” says Dave. “That’s something that will secure our gifts as long as we’re able to give. They really helped our little girl out.” [ 36 summer 2008 ] H.E.A.R.T. partnership Huntington Hospital Illustrates Its Commitment to Excellent Cardiac Care Clockwise from top left: Gail Cinexi, manager of cardiovascular services, and Mayer Y. Rashtian, MD, medical director of electrophysiology. John Easthope, MD, medical director of noninvasive cardiology and cardiac rehabilitation (left) and H.E.A.R.T. President Bill Young. David Stevenson, DDS, and his wife, Sucy. [ advocate 37 ] On April 29, members of the Heart Education Association for Rehabilitation and Treatment (H.E.A.R.T.) Committee were invited to attend a special luncheon highlighting one of the most recent advances in cardiac care at Huntington Hospital. Mayer Y. Rashtian, MD, director of electrophysiology at the hospital, was on hand to provide details of the leading-edge procedure, which has the potential to enhance care for patients with the United States’ most widespread heart rhythm disorder. The procedure –– known as cardiac ablation –– was recently approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) to treat atrial fibrillation, a condition affecting two million Americans. Dr. Rashtian pointed out that Huntington Hospital now offers the most advanced method of cardiac ablation utilizing the EnSite System –– a new computerized means of mapping arrhythmias. This system creates a three-dimensional display of the patient’s cardiac structures, promoting prompt diagnosis and guiding navigation of a catheter to implement treatment, without the use of fluoroscopy. “By allowing us to more precisely identify rhythm disturbances and by speeding care, we have the potential to improve outcomes for our patients,” notes Dr. Rashtian. Dr. Rashtian notes that ablation has been previously used to treat supraventricular tachycardia, another cardiac rhythm disorder. However, recent FDA approval broadened the scope of the treatment to include atrial fibrillation. This abnormal heart rhythm, originating in the atria, causes a rapid, disorganized heartbeat. In the past, atrial fibrillation could be treated only by medication and lifestyle changes. However, Dr. Rashtian explains, medication may not be sufficient to control the disorder or may produce unwanted side-effects among some patients. Cardiac ablation offers a safe –– and permanent –– alternative in such cases. New potential. Dr. Rashtian describes ablation as a noninvasive procedure performed by an electrophysiologist –– a cardiologist like himself who specializes in rhythm disorders. The procedure, also called “cardiac mapping,” gathers data by way of tiny electrodes, introduced via thin catheters inserted into blood vessels in the groin or neck and threaded to the heart. The electrodes pinpoint the area within the heart’s electrical system that is causing the cardiac arrhythmia. Radiofrequency is then used to create small lesions that obstruct the trouble spots –– in order to permanently relieve the erratic heartbeat. Dr. Rashtian notes that cardiac ablation is not appropriate for every patient with atrial fibrillation. Those suffering from valve disease or other serious cardiovascular disease, for example, may not be candidates for the procedure. For eligible patients, however, the procedure promises significant benefits. Since its inception, the H.E.A.R.T. Committee has played a vital role in enhancing care to heart patients at Huntington Hospital by raising funds for essential rehabilitation facilities, equipment and services, as well as for other cardiac programs. In 2007 alone, the group raised more than $73,000. Dr. Rashtian’s presentation provided H.E.A.R.T. donors with a special inside look at one of the newest advancements in heart care at Huntington Hospital. Such informative gatherings are among the benefits of membership in this special philanthropic group. Relieving cardiac arrhythmia…for good.

The event featured Yafa Minazad, DO, a prominent clinical neurophysiologist and neurologist at Huntington Hospital, who shared her expertise on headaches. Headaches represent a common medical condition that, if not properly diagnosed and treated, can have a profound impact on quality of life. Dr. Minazad provided helpful information and tips regarding how to take control of headaches, and shared the most current scientific knowledge about headaches and their causes. She pointed out that there are two types of headaches –– primary headaches, which are not life-threatening, and secondary headaches, which could be life-threatening –– and emphasized that keeping a headache diary is one of the best ways to identify which type of headache you are experiencing. Recording patterns and specific details, she noted –– and relaying the information to your physician –– will aid in obtaining appropriate diagnosis and treatment. “People come to me complaining of longstanding sinus headaches, when in fact they are migraine sufferers,” said Dr. Minazad. “It’s really important to find out which type of headache you have...and to get proper treatment and management.” She encouraged event guests to pursue additional tests if they experience symptoms that are out of the ordinary. [ 40 summer 2008 ] Dr. Minazad closed her lecture by talking about Huntington Hospital’s exemplary services, including the epilepsy and brain-mapping program, which uses advanced tools to pinpoint the source of epileptic seizures in the brain. She also discussed the hospital’s movement disorder program, which improves quality of life for patients with conditions such as Parkinson’s disease and dystonia through the implantation of deep-brain stimulators. The neurophysiology laboratory at Huntington Hospital, she noted, has the latest and best neuromonitoring systems, and the hospital is now developing a state-of the-art stroke program. Huntington Hospital — a leader in neuroscience. SCRUBS, Huntington Hospital’s newest support group, launched its Million Dollar ER Campaign in April 2007, with the goal of contributing $1 million by 2010 toward the hospital’s vital initiative to renovate and expand the Emergency & Trauma Center. “We’ve all had to rush our children to the emergency room for one thing or another,” says Paul C. Johnson, former SCRUBS co-chair. “SCRUBS wants to make sure that our local Emergency & Trauma Center can provide the best care possible to every person who comes through its doors.” All gifts received through the SCRUBS campaign will be counted toward the million-dollar goal. A number of community members have already pledged support at the leadership level. Those who contribute gifts of $10,000 or more will receive prominent recognition on a special donor wall, to be located within the expanded Emergency & Trauma Center upon its completion. The Million Dollar ER Campaign is part of a hospital-wide effort to raise $80 million toward the center’s expansion in response to growing regional need. The center is currently operating at twice its physical capacity. A new generation of philanthropists.

The NCL Juniors’ sold-out dinner, casino and auction gala was an outstanding success, drawing more than 350 guests. Funds raised will help make a difference in the lives of critically ill newborns and children, as proceeds benefit Huntington Hospital’s neonatal and pediatric intensive care units. A taste of Hollywood old and new. During the gala event, guests enjoyed a taste of old Hollywood glamour as they gathered at the Roosevelt Hotel (the venue was generously donated for the occasion) — site of the first Academy Awards. As they entered via a red carpet, the flash bulbs of waiting “paparazzi” popped, while elegant floral arrangements, courtesy of Jacob Maarse Florists, brought an additional glamorous touch to the décor. Delicious food, Hollywood-style casino games and silent and live auctions added to the evening’s excitement. And included in the auctions were several items reflecting the sizzle of today’s Hollywood: memorabilia signed by latest “it” girl, Miley Cyrus; a guitar signed and donated by Grammy Awardwinning rock/pop band Maroon 5; stunning jewelry from Tiffany & Co; and additional pieces fit for the red carpet, from Single Stone and from China Art & Jewelry, for example. Ron and Lee Havner were specially honored during the evening for their continued support of the NCL Juniors. Benefit Co-chairs Melanie Polk and Michelle Hickey were delighted by the generous support for this year’s gala. They extend thanks to NCL Juniors President Diane Comi French, hardworking Benefit Committee members, event patrons, corporate sponsors, inkind donors, benefit guests and all who helped to make A Hollywood Affair such an outstanding success. Generous sponsors included Diane Comi and Robert French; the Havner family; Mr. and Mrs. Charles Reardon and The Reeves Family Foundation; Patricia and Andrew Stenwall; Empire Transportation, Inc.; Permits Today LLC; Jill Westbrook-Roberts and Rick Roberts; Nestlé USA, Inc.; Nancy and Frank Ferri; the Cacique Foundation; Pediatrix Medical Group of California; and the Boggs/Ary Family. With this year’s event proceeds, the NCL Juniors continue their support of the hospital’s neonatal and pediatric intensive care units. Specifically, the event generated more than $150,000 to help purchase needed medical technologies — including a state-of-the-art incubator that permits caregivers to perform tests and medical procedures without moving the infant. In addition, proceeds will support the purchase of a new telemetry system to track the vital signs of critically ill children and a pediatric decumbent diversion system — an age-appropriate video center that provides a soothing distraction for young patients being treated for drug-induced comas and other serious conditions. Helping young patients reach for the stars. [ 44 summer 2008 ] Flintridge La Cañada Guild partnership Popular Horse Show Raises Money for a Good Cause On April 25 through 27, the Flintridge La Cañada Guild of Huntington Hospital hosted its 87th Annual Children’s Horse Show at the Flintridge Riding Club. One of the oldest and largest children’s horse shows in the western United States, the show attracted young competitors from across the country eager to showcase their riding skills. Guild members — along with family members and friends — worked diligently to organize this year’s event, which generated support toward expansion of Huntington Hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center. In 1921, the Children’s Horse Show debuted with just 23 entries. This year, more than 200 competitors registered for the show. Gail Jagels, horse show chair, notes that some families have passed on the tradition of horse show participation from generation to generation. “One of our present members recalls visiting the show when her mother worked on it as a guild member,” Jagels explains. “Today, both she and her mother are members,” — and both think of April as horse show time! The 2007 horse show event featured not only fine horsemanship, but also a silent auction, live entertainment, a gala dinner, and the 8th annual wine and microbrew tasting event, among other attractions. A family custom. Competition during the three-day show commenced at 8 a.m. each day and included a host of thrilling events. Adding to the fun, participants presented the judges with what are laughingly described as “Bribe Baskets.” These elaborate, goodie-filled baskets were assembled by the participants themselves. Despite their name, the baskets did not purchase higher scores. Rather, they were later auctioned to raise additional funds for the hospital. After presenting their baskets, children joined in teams of three to make a circuit of jumps — each group of three taking the final jump in unison. All riders and horses were decoratively costumed, based on themes selected by the children themselves, and each rider had selected a musical accompaniment to further illustrate their theme. Over the years, the Flintridge La Cañada Guild’s fundraising efforts have generated millions of dollars in support of programs and services at Huntington Hospital. Proceeds from this year’s horse show will help meet the guild’s three-year pledge of $250,000 toward expansion of the hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center. Housing the only emergency department in Pasadena and the only trauma center in the San Gabriel Valley, the Emergency & Trauma Center provides essential care through more than 60,000 patient visits per year.

Along with passing the president’s gravel to Tara Burnett-Doering, the group’s outgoing president, Rosanne Berlen, proudly presented Huntington Hospital with a check in the amount of $105,000 in support of the hospital’s Constance G. Zahorik Breast Center. Proceeds from The Circle’s 2007 benefit season are designated toward the purchase of digital mammography equipment to advance breast-cancer screening. “Members of The Circle are dedicated to supporting the fine clinical and diagnostic care received by patients at Constance G. Zahorik Breast Center and Hill Radiology,” Berlen says. “The compassion, medical expertise and support provided by breast center staff are exemplary.” Burnett-Doering, a longtime Circle member, is enthusiastic to take The Circle’s helm for 2008 and says she is honored to follow in Berlen’s footsteps. “Rosanne has an amazing amount of energy and is an excellent role model,” Burnett-Doering notes. “She is truly dedicated to supporting the mission of The Circle.” Burnett-Doering and other Circle members are already hard at work planning and implementing the 2008 benefit season entitled, Let Us Entertain You! According to Burnett-Doering, this fundraising year will encompass memorable evenings of entertainment –– with performances as varied as soulful Delta Blues, classical piano and opera. Most of all, Burnett-Doering emphasizes, she wants to make sure members “have a blast while raising money…and the roof.” Passing the torch. The group’s 2008 season kicked off on April 26 with “The Circle’s Evening of Opera” at the lovely Pasadena estate of Letty and Arturo Ibarra, DDS. Critically acclaimed soprano Susan Asbjornson and pianist Bill Protzmann entertained guests in an elegant and relaxing atmosphere. On Saturday, June 7, the entertainment –– and fundraising –– continued with a special group viewing of the newly released film Sex and the City at the Paseo Theater in Pasadena. Circle members and guests enjoyed a matinée showing of the highly anticipated film, based on the popular television series of the same name. Circle members encouraged friends and family to set their own (higher-than-asking) price for tickets thus raising additional funds in support of breast care at Huntington Hospital. Next in the series, “The Four Hands Piano Duet” –– scheduled for August 24 –– will feature a husband-and-wife musical team from the University of Southern California Thornton School of Music. Kevin Fitz-Gerald, associate professor, and Bernadene Blaha, senior lecturer, will perform at a private home in Altadena. On September 20, classical concert pianist Susan Spelius Dunning and acoustic blues guitarist and singer Bruce Innes will entertain their audience of Circle supporters and hospital benefactors with their performance entitled, “Where Chopin Meets the Delta Blues.” Dunning and Innes will perform at the Colburn School’s Herbert Zipper Hall in Los Angeles. In October, in recognition of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, The Circle will also host a special event entitled, Give, Live and Laugh, including dinner and a show. Tickets are $135 per person and reservations will be taken in advance. The Circle’s 2008 events will raise funds in support of a variety of important programs at Constance G.

Funds from the event, which will take place on Sunday, October 26, 2008, will support the lifesaving services of the hospital’s Center for Trauma Care. According to the San Marino Tribune, “nothing tempts the palate” like the hospital’s Fall Food & Wine Festival, which has raised approximately $2 million toward the care services of Huntington Hospital’s trauma center, to date. As part of its commitment to the community, the hospital now operates the only trauma center in the San Gabriel Valley — and when life is hanging in the balance, local residents count on the center’s team of highly skilled medical professionals to be there for them. Approximately 1,000 patients require treatment for traumatic internal injury at the center each year. Since the Fall Food & Wine Festival’s inception, restaurateurs Bob and Gregg Smith, owners of the Smith Brothers Restaurant Corporation, have played a leadership role in the event. The Smiths operate Pasadena’s respected Parkway Grill, as well as several other gourmet eateries in the Los Angeles area. And the brothers’ commitment to superlative service goes beyond their restaurants: They bring this same dedication to their philanthropic involvement. In addition to their leadership participation in the Fall Food & Wine Festival each year, furthermore, they are also instrumental in recruiting many additional fine restaurants and premium wineries to join with them — to enchant guests with delectable dishes and superior wines. Dedicated Partnership. Collaborating with the Smith Brothers is Huntington Hospital’s Fall Food & Wine Committee, consisting of 39 members, including community friends, business owners and hospital employees. Every year, new volunteers join committee veterans (some have served on the committee for as many as 24 years), dedicating many months of hard work to ensure the festival’s success. In 2008, Greg and Michele Thompson will return as committee co-chairs. Under their enthusiastic leadership, the Fall Food & Wine Committee will oversee the significant logistics of coordinating 38 restaurants and 70 wineries, so that all come together for a single, spectacular evening. And — as if that were not enough — committee members are also responsible for invitations, decorations, ticket sales and music. Throughout, their work translates into essential support for trauma care at Huntington Hospital. Our Team. In addition to sampling wonderful food and wines, festival attendees also enjoy dancing and live music on the grounds between Parkway Grill and Arroyo Chop House in Pasadena. More than 1,500 influential members of the community –– including physicians, business leaders, and major donors –– participate in this special evening, helping to secure the future of trauma services to our region.

[ advocate 51 ] San Marino Guild of Huntington Hospital partnership 40th-anniversary Celebrity Series Benefits Our Region’s Youngest Patients The San Marino Guild’s Celebrity Series continued to captivate and charm audiences throughout its 40th season of special guest appearances. Members are particularly pleased with the success of this year’s four Sunday events, which provided guests with live musical entertainment and lectures both poignant and entertaining. “We have had a successful year celebrating our 40th anniversary of Celebrity Series,” Guild President Peggy Yingling says. “The varied talents blended into a winning season with great appeal. It also allowed us to reach our goal of supporting the latest technology for Huntington Hospital’s neonatal intensive care unit.” The San Marino Guild’s 2008 gift is just one of the ways the guild has supported Huntington Hospital over the years in its work to improve the quality of care for the most fragile infants and children of our community. Specifically, proceeds from this season’s events will be directed to the hospital’s neonatal intensive care unit for the purchase of an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation system, which provides cardiac and respiratory support for delicate newborns. On January 27, the Celebrity Series opened with NBC anchor and 13-time Emmy Award winner Chuck Henry. During the event, “Thru the Lens –– Across Our Planet,” Henry, a longtime San Marino resident, shared filmed feats of derring-do from his transcontinental travels in pursuit of news and adventures for the popular television program Travel Café, which is produced by his eldest daughter. Footage included a high-speed ride in an F-i6 jet, in which Henry, showing his daredevil side to the cameras, experienced the exhilaration of upside-down flight. Henry also gave his audience an up-close-and-personal look at the NBC news team’s dramatic rescue from the flames of the Thrilling footage. [ 52 summer 2008 ] 2003 California forest fires. Henry described the emotions he felt when the crew was surrounded by flames and rescued by firefighters in the nick of time. This close call has not deterred Henry from seeking adventure, however. In fact, he encouraged his audience to follow their hearts and take advantage of new experiences: “If you think you can do it, go for it and do it,” he urged. Celebrity Series audience members were a-tappin’ their toes to the beat of The Diamonds during the season’s second event, “Rock and Roll for All Ages,” on February 13. The concert, praised as “unforgettable,” “dynamic,” and “truly sensational,” featured hits from the 1950s. The Diamonds’ four charismatic members — Joe Finnetti, lead singer; Gary Owens, baritone; Jerry Singer, bass; and Bobby Poynton, tenor — entertained listeners with their special chemistry and their energetic and versatile vocal styling. The concert opened with The Diamonds’ first major hit, “Little Darlin’,” and included such favorites as “Church Bells May Ring,” “Why Do Fools Fall in Love,” and “The Stroll.” The group also roused their audience with Elvis Presley hits — and stopped hearts with Poynton’s beautiful rendition of “Unchained Melody.” As the band recalled a bygone era of entertainment with their exceptional harmonies and solos, enthused guests swayed and clapped their hands. One couple was so swept away that they even took a few spins in the aisle. Dance down memory lane. Bob Eubanks did not know he was destined for stardom when, as a kid, he got a job opening limousine doors for the likes of Elizabeth Taylor, Gary Cooper and Debbie Reynolds in front of the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood. On March 9, during the third installment of the 2008 Celebrity Series, “Laughter and the Game Show of Life,” Eubanks shared the secrets of his path to success. It was a path that eventually led him to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, in front of the very theater where he had opened doors so many years earlier. Long before Eubanks made history as the host of the popular television show The Newlywed Game, he began in the entertainment industry as a disc jockey at KRLA radio station, located in the Huntington Hotel in Pasadena. Along with fellow entertainment personalities-in-the-making Wink Martindale and Casey Kasem, he learned the ropes of hosting live shows. And he gained skills that were to serve him well when he carried on to television and, later, to a 20-year career in concert promotion. Personable and funny, Eubanks charmed his audience with anecdotes from his career, including bloopers from early game shows and a story about one of the first couples to appear on The Newlywed Game –– then-unknown comedian Dominick “Dom” DeLuise and his wife, Carol Arthur.

Decoding da Vinci. Elliot Engel, PhD, a prominent author, professor and Celebrity Series favorite, returned on April 13 to delight his audience with a look into one of the Renaissance’s most fascinating figures. In his lecture “Leonardo da Vinci –– Before the Code,” Dr. Engel took audiences back in time to explore the truth about one of the most famous figures in history. Employing his customary wit and insight, Dr. Engel brought da Vinci to life for his listeners. His talk was full of intriguing facts and stories capturing da Vinci’s spirit. Dr. Engel enlivened the April event further as he chatted with guests during the silent auction preceding his talk –– and continued to engage in spirited conversation with guests during the post-lecture reception. In addition to giving more than 260 lectures each year, Dr. Engel leads travel enthusiasts around the world on learning vacations. This year, he celebrated his birthday by taking a plunge into the icy waters of Antarctica! Each year, San Marino Guild members volunteer thousands of hours of their time to various hospital departments and services, including the S.

[ 54 summer 2008 ] Women’s Auxiliary partnership Infusing Philanthropy with Fun and Creativity On May 16, more than 100 Women’s Auxiliary members and guests gathered at the Santa Anita Country Club for the group’s third annual spring luncheon and centerpiece competition. The event, which incorporated a silent auction, raised funds in support of essential services at Huntington Hospital Ambulatory Care Center (the Dispensary). This year’s luncheon also gave guests the opportunity to browse eye-catching displays of jewelry, clothing, housewares, antiques and more. Local vendors donated a portion of proceeds from the sale of these items to the auxiliary, helping to meet its annual fundraising goal and thus providing vital support for Huntington Hospital. After guests had completed their purchases, the entertaining centerpiece competition got into full swing, showcasing the creativity of auxiliary members, who designed the beautiful arrangements adorning each table. Winners were selected by a panel of three judges. Adding to the fun, this panel included one lucky guest, who was randomly selected to join professional florist Tenely Young, from Ixora Floral Studio in Pasadena, and Bab Stewarts, appraiser for the Huntington Collection, in choosing the day’s prizewinners. Women’s Auxiliary President Diane Martin notes that the auxiliary’s fundraising event “is not your standard luncheon. Some people get crazy and create tremendous, extravagant centerpieces,” she explains. “I just do normal ones,” she adds with a laugh, modestly downplaying her own creative talents. Among the afternoon’s most elaborate creations was the arrangement designed by Ixora florist Young. This beautiful display, along with many member-designed centerpieces –– was ultimately auctioned to raise additional funds in support of the Dispensary. Jane Haderlein, Huntington Hospital’s vice president of development and public affairs, was in attendance at this year’s festivities, as was Linda Stephens, new manager of the Huntington Collection. For the third consecutive year, Women’s Auxiliary member Ginny Lechler chaired the luncheon and centerpiece competition. May the best bouquet win. The Women’s Auxiliary also raised funds in support of Huntington Hospital during a recent book sale. A crowd had already formed by 8 a.m. –– one hour prior to opening time –– at the sale location on Huntington Hospital’s campus. Hospital staff, as well as other members of the community, were eager to get their hands on the great deals available, which included cookbooks, children’s stories, books on CD, reference books, and many more. Diane Martin and her fellow Book Sale Committee members were delighted with the outcome of the sale. “How many places can you get a hardback book for a dollar?” she asked. “And for a good cause, too.” Later this year, the Women’s Auxiliary will hold their annual Day at the Races event.

The exclusive neighborhood, which was developed in 1911, is nestled at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains, bounded on the west by Page Drive and on the east by Tanoble Drive. Three grand residences from the 1920s and 30s, all located on a one-block stretch of Homewood Drive, were included on this year’s tour, which raised funds in support of Huntington Medical Research Institutes (HMRI). Tour guests enjoyed not only stunning mountain views, lovely period architecture and lush gardens, but also live music — and complimentary beverages and desserts in the tour’s Tea Garden. In addition, guests had the opportunity to peruse vendor displays of fine art, jewelry and pottery, as well as to purchase homemade goodies such as cakes, cookies and jams at the tour’s special refreshment venue and to enjoy libations at the Garden Bar. The first home on the tour, a newly restored Spanish-colonial-revival estate named after its builder and designer, Kenyon Keith, was built in 1925 in one of the most popular architectural Spanish charm.

A remodel completed in 2006 with meticulous attention to detail and sensitivity to the period by the home’s current owners has created an environment of grace and comfort. Modern Spanish-renaissance-style furnishings combined with wonderful antique pieces, give the home a stately feel. The extensively remodeled kitchen, designed by Lucinda Bailey, is a throwback to 1920s style with its wrought-iron hardware and an enormous Wolf stove. An Andalusian stucco fireplace and a garden planted with avocado and citrus trees are additional beautiful touches that add to the home’s charm. English elegance. Next door to the Keith home is the Squire G. Tuttle House, second stop on this year’s tour. In 1925, Squire Tuttle commissioned Keith to build an English-Tudor-revival home — using another popular architectural style of the early 1900s — next to Keith’s existing Spanish-style estate. During a two-phase remodel, begun in 2003 and finalized this year, the Tuttle House’s square footage was almost doubled, bringing a more spacious and airy feel to a home that had previously emphasized the cozy English-cottage style typified by smaller rooms and windows. The house now includes a paneled library with built-in bookcases, replacing the original small dining room. Another focal point is the living-room fireplace, flanked by turned columns and a carved mantle topped by a peaked gothic arch. Elegant touches to the kitchen include alder-paneled refrigerator doors stained to match the 18th-century English cupboard, as well as huge walk-in and butler’s pantries. The J. Charles Maddison House was the last home guests visited on the tour. Designed in 1930 by Harold J. Bissner, a prominent Pasadena architect, this home cost $24,000 to build, according to original records –– a princely sum in 1930. A gate flanked by iceberg roses provides entrance to the property. Visitors then enter the Italian-revival-style residence through a doorway framed and accented by cast-stone scrollwork. Inside, notable features include a magnificent, carved French nouveau sideboard and a dining table seating 24 in matching style. An Otis elevator (installed in 1933) and a beautiful stainedglass panel on the second-floor landing also drew admiring remarks from tour participants. The lush grounds of the Maddison House include a waterfall that spills from the spa into the recently renovated pool, as well as a covered loggia and outside kitchen, and a formal rose garden. The guesthouse, located next to the pool, boasts a patio deck with one of the area’s best views of Mt. Wilson. The Altadena Guild’s 2008 home tour was a wonderful success due to the efforts of numerous volunteers, led by Event Chair Freddi Hill and the guild’s president, Carla Houser Partma. Thanks to such dedicated work, the event was a hit with guests — and contributed to the essential research of Huntington Medical Research Institutes. HMRI operates nine research programs, focusing on breast, colon and prostate cancer; stroke; heart disease; epilepsy; profound deafness; liver disease and cancer; migraine headaches; sleep apnea; and brain diseases including Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases. The generosity of the Altadena Guild and funds raised through the guild’s annual home tour –– the longest-running tour of its kind in the San Gabriel Valley — contribute to the advancement of medicine by supporting HMRI’s research programs.

On January 26, enthusiastic shoppers and volunteers gathered to take part in one of the area’s best-known shopping rituals: the Bag Sale. The January crowd included seasoned volunteers and sale regulars, as well as excited and intrigued newcomers. Held approximately four times a year, the unorthodox (and ever-popular) Bag Sale gives Collection shoppers the opportunity to pick up once-in-alifetime deals on top-drawer clothing and accessories. For January’s sale, as for all Huntington Collection Bag Sales dating back to 1985, households on the Collection’s 2,000-customer mailing list received a notice that read, “In exchange for $10.00, you will receive a grocery-size brown bag and all the time you need to fill it to the brim.” Doors opened at 8 a.m., revealing an extensive array of items from which to select. As volunteers busily tidied displays and supplied eager shoppers with empty bags, Linda M. Stephens –– manager of the Huntington Collection –– took a moment to step back from the shopping frenzy and take in the scene. “People who frequent bag sales come with strong determination…and an ability to cram the bag to the brim!” she observes. “Some people throw clothing and accessories in the bag haphazardly,” Stephens continues. “Others take each piece and roll it very evenly….” But while shoppers may all have slightly different styles, all seem to agree on one thing: In the face of such a great deal and with so many things to choose from, a single bag is simply not enough. “Some people checked out with six bags each!” says Stephens. Huntington Collection proceeds — including funds generated at the Collection’s regular Bag Sales — help support the work of Huntington Hospital’s Senior Care Network. This important program provides information, referrals and services that help San Gabriel Valley seniors remain active, healthy and independent. Looking for rare collectibles and antiques? Experience the Huntington Collection’s unique selection of pottery, jewelry, art and more, each weekday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. (except Thursdays, when the store is open from noon to 6 p.m.). Doors are also open the last Saturday of each month from 8 a.m. until 1 p.m. The store is located at 766 South Fair Oaks Avenue in Pasadena, two blocks south of California Boulevard. (More than) three bags full. [ 60 summer 2008 ] Above: Couples Bill and Marion Eggers (left) and Cathy Simms and Garrett Bell join in volunteering their time to Huntington Hospital.

Robert and Denise Zeilstra Gift Shop partnership Bringing Couples Together in the Spirit of Volunteerism If you have shopped at Huntington Hospital’s S. Robert and Denise Zeilstra Gift Shop, you have likely been impressed by the energy and enthusiasm of the people who work there. What you may not know, however, is that many of these dedicated individuals are just one half of a dynamic volunteering duo: Several gift shop volunteers have “other halves” who also generously contribute their time and energy at the hospital. Cathy Simms and Garrett Bell, for example, got involved at the hospital some 10 years ago through the Fall Food & Wine Festival Committee, at the suggestion of Garrett’s sister, Linda Barker, a longtime employee in the volunteer department at the hospital. In addition to her work at the gift shop, Cathy continues to participate on the Fall Food & Wine Committee, and also volunteers as a member of the Altadena Guild. Garrett quickly caught the “volunteering bug” — along with the enthusiasm his wife and sister share for Huntington Hospital. For him, volunteering at the hospital has been a great opportunity to spend quality time with his wife. “We look forward to our time together at the hospital,” he says. “It’s like date night — but for a worthy cause!” Adds Garrett, “The other volunteers are great. With all the support, the jobs get done quickly, and we have fun in the process!” Date night for a good cause. San Marino native and mother of four, Cynthia Ingle joined the hospital’s volunteer family in the 1980s, as a way to give back to the community while her children were in school. A company transfer for husband Alec in 1995 took the family to New York, but retirement brought the family back to San Marino in 2004. Once resettled, Cynthia knew she wanted to rejoin the hospital family — and this time, she had company. A welcome homecoming. [ 62 summer 2008 ] Cynthia works in the gift shop, and Alec joins her as a volunteer there for what he teasingly refers to as the “man jobs” — such as lifting heavy boxes of merchandise that are delivered to the shop and hanging decorations during the holiday season. In addition, Alec is an active volunteer with the hospital’s errand and escort program and with the patient relations program. Volunteering at Huntington Hospital has become an important part of the Ingles’ lives — and a meaningful way of giving back to their community. “People on a fixed income may not be able to contribute monetarily,” says Alec, “but they can give their time. And giving time to the hospital brings an enormous sense of pride.” Liz Vail first came to the hospital under traumatic circumstances: It was July 1984 and Liz was one of 10 people in Los Angeles to come down with aseptic spinal meningitis. Tragically, only half survived. Liz recalls receiving expert treatment at the hospital. “I truly believe that Huntington Hospital saved my life,” she says. Once fully recovered, this full-time banker decided she wanted to express her gratitude by becoming a volunteer. Today, she not only serves in the gift shop, but is also a member of the Flintridge La Cañada Guild. Liz’s husband, Carl, was first exposed to the hospital through his business: He was a contractor working on hospital facilities in the 1990s. Upon retirement, he wanted to continue his involvement with the hospital and eagerly joined Liz in the gift shop. One of the things he enjoys most is meeting other volunteers there. “We’ve made such good friends through the hospital,” he notes. “Every person in the hospital makes you feel valued as a volunteer,” adds Liz. “I get much more back than I give,” she says. “There’s no question about that.” Saving lives and fostering a lifetime of involvement. Bill and Marion Eggers have been volunteering at Huntington Hospital since 2001, Bill in the errand and escort program, and Marion at the gift shop and errand and escort program. A onetime patient, Bill sees his volunteerism as an opportunity to give back to the hospital. “They took such good care of me,” he says, “and for me, this is a kind of payback for that.” In addition, he says, volunteering at the hospital brings added meaning to the Eggers’ lives. “As a retiree, you need something worthwhile to do,” he says. “And we get to do it together!” Marion also praises the training and support she and Bill have received. “The hospital makes it easy to volunteer and the training is wonderful,” she says. In addition, “The staff are all so appreciative of what we do — and that really makes the difference. We highly recommend this to other couples!” The gift shop is open for business Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. For more information on how to get involved as a gift shop volunteer, or regarding other volunteering opportunities at the hospital, please contact the volunteer and customer service office at (626) 397-5208.

[ 80 summer 2008 ] Dear Friends One of the most important issues facing Huntington Hospital today is the rising demand for emergency and trauma care. In fact, each year the hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center has approximately twice as many patient visits as it was designed to accommodate. It is important to emphasize that the quality of care provided by our Emergency & Trauma Center is still excellent. When you are sick or in pain, you want to receive that care now, however, and — as a result of increased demand — our patients are now being forced to wait longer for care than we (or they) would like. In addition, ambulances are often diverted to other, more distant facilities because our Emergency & Trauma Center is full. There are many reasons for such challenges. The bottom line, though, is that assigning “blame” — whether on other facility closures or on the growing number of working families who lack health insurance or on other factors — will not help a single patient who walks through our doors. And that next patient could be my grandchild or yours. In fact, you or I could be that patient. We must find the best possible solution to our community’s problem. To ensure that high-quality emergency and trauma care remain available for all, and that we can reach such care promptly, I urge you to join me in supporting the expansion of Huntington Hospital’s Emergency & Trauma Center. This essential work will increase the hospital’s emergency and trauma care capacity, providing larger and thoroughly modern facilities to meet our community’s future needs. Please help us to help each other and our community. Thank you in advance for your involvement. Gratefully, Lois S.
