Past employees of Warren Memorial Hospital gather for reunion

Published

on

Past employees of Warren Memorial Hospital gathered on June 11, 2022, at the park at Bing Crosby Stadium to enjoy food and memories.

Cheryl Rakes, a retired Warren Hospital nurse had the idea for this reunion. She said, ” the response has been overwhelming. I put up the idea on Facebook, and it just took off.”

Of course, she had some help from other retired employees and friends, but the sentiment at the reunion was Cheryl did all the hard work, and they thanked her for all the effort. They all said it was a great event and they’ll come again.

Cheryl added, “We’ve had responses from 165 people who want to come, and some as far as Florida.”

The Royal Examiner wants to thank all the employees of our hospitals and first responders as you work long and hard hours, and long shifts. You see all kinds of things, some good and some bad, and we want you to know our community appreciates you and cherishes you.
