‘Aunt Ruth Always Loved Owls’
Lake of the Woods District Hospital Foundation was honored to received a Robert Bateman painting ‘In the Oak - Great Horned Owl’ donated from the Pollard family in honor of their Aunt Ruth and Uncle Bob Neely.
Carl and Dorothy Pollard, along with their children Darryl and Cara-Lee wished to thank the 2nd floor East for the “first class care/service” received for their family members, who were both patients on the unit in 2005. The family decided the donation of this painting of a great horned owl would be a perfect way of saying thank you to the unit and at the same time honoring their Aunt and Uncle. The Ducks Unlimited Collection painting hangs on the wall for the second floor sitting room for all patients and visitors alike to enjoy.
Patty Tittlemeir, Nurse Manager for 2nd floor East stated “It was an honor to look after Mr. and Mrs. Neeley”.
