Marion BaptistDonor Story

Marion Baptist says what stands out in her mind about St. Michael's is not just the wonderful care, but how well the health care teams communicate with the patients and their families.

"When my husband was a patient here, he was very well looked after and so was I because we were always kept informed."

Marion's husband Melville passed away in our palliative care unit in 1998.

When it was time for Marion to prepare a will, she chose to remember the St. Michael's Hospital Foundation. As she says, "it was what Mel would have wanted."
