Lee Memorial Hospital Auxiliary was
founded on November 21, 1950, when Mrs. Howard O. Daubman and Mrs.
Guy R. Miller met with wives of hospital board directors, staff
doctors and dentists at the Daubman's home to discuss the formation
of the Lee Memorial Auxiliary. On that evening, the ladies planned an
organizational meeting for December 18th at the Sunshine Kitchen and
scheduled their first election of officers for January 9, 1951.
Three Auxiliary services were initiated in 1951. They were a
Hospitality Service, Floor Service, and Sewing Service. From those
three services Lee Memorial Auxiliary has grown to staff over 60
service areas at Lee Memorial Hospital and 55 service areas at
HealthPark Medical Center. Currently, there are 1,050 Auxiliary
members.
