Please know your generosity in support of UnityPoint Health – Des Moines gave strength to patients like Sue, a COVID-19 survivor, who said: Rick Pertzborn, Dennis Linderbaum and David Stark “When we talk about essential jobs, these are clearly the only ones I can think of that mattered to me. It’s amazing that these nurses and doctors truly risked their lives, every day to take care of me. They have families at home, and are tired themselves, but they show up, every day, to save people’s lives. They saved my life.” Each and every year, you help our organization bring the best in comfort and care to our patients. Every one of your gifts make a difference, and that was especially true this past year.

My personal memory, among many, is of the half-time pep talks of my foot- ball coach. Coach Junius B. Ferrall’s admonitions ran something like this: “Play your best, for you will replay these games in your minds the rest of your lives.” Sure, Coach, you bet! Now in my seventies, I am startled from time to time because I still replay those 1940s games in my mind. I say to myself, “If I had only. .” Coach Ferrall made a difference in my life and in the lives of countless others. Athletes of Purpose gave me great joy in its writing. Much of the credit for that joy goes to the children’s department of the Wooster Public Library. The staff helped me time and again with my search for background material.
