The Harold Leever Regional Cancer Center wishes to express its appreciation to our neighbors and friends...
Thank you to Dominic Rinaldi, who, in partnership with O’Rourke & Birch Florists, created beautiful vases of flowers to give free to Leever patients in memory of his wife, Antoinette Rinaldi, who was a Leever patient for 15 years.
We also thank Waterbury-based O’Rourke & Birch Florist for their kind donation of carnations for our patients to take home.
Great thanks to Krista Palomba and her friends, who created and filled 75 special patient bags.
Our incredibly generous HLRCC staff and Brave at Heart Women’s Breast Cancer Support Group made the holidays brighter for all by contributing gift cards for our patients.
