A generous donation of Josh and Friends “I’ll Be O.K.” gift sets provided by the American Legion Auxiliary Unit No. 155 will help the staff at Seven Rivers Regional Medical Center calm the fears of children who enter the hospital for emergency care or surgery.
The sets include the “I’ll Be O.K.” story book and an adorable Josh plush puppy.
Shown in the photo at right are Legion Auxiliary representatives Barbara Logan, vice president and membership chairman; Shawn Mikulas, president; and Marie Pink, children and youth chairman, presented John Massa, director of emergency services at Seven Rivers Regional, with 10 gifts sets valued at $40 each.
