Licking Memorial Health Systems (LMHS) hosted a special event, Wednesday,
October 13, to present the LMHS Remembrance Garden.  The garden was created to commemorate and honor employees who have passed away while serving at LMHS, and is located near the upper portion of the employee parking lot at Licking Memorial Hospital.  During the event, LMHS President & CEO Rob Montagnese dedicated the garden and shared the names of those honored at the site. 
 
“The loss of our coworkers is a strong reminder about the vital role we play as caregivers in our community,” Rob said during the ceremony.  “Our staff makes many sacrifices to work to improve the health of the community.  We wanted to create a space of healing – a beautiful area where employees, patients and even family members can visit to celebrate with solemnity the careers of those we have lost.”  Employees and community members are encouraged to appreciate the quiet space and reflect on the memories of those who have devotedly served our community.
