Ruth Mayhew served as Administrative Assistant for 18 years prior to her retirement in 1999. Mike Riege stated "she was a tireless worker, filling roles of secretary, Board Secretary, Human Resources, Payroll Clerk and Benefits Administrator.
Ruth was the one who brought in the idea of the Tree of Lights to Virginia Gay Hospital back in 1992. Since then, over $1.5million has been raised on behalf of Virginia Gay Hospital Health Care Foundation.
In 1992, $7,437 was raised, this past year over $125,000 raised. These funds have provided vital equipment and funds to support every program in the Hospital, Clinics, and Nursing & Rehab.
We continue the legacy of Ruth Mayhew who envisioned the opportunity to commemorate loved ones and promote fellowship during the holiday season. It is with gratitude and honor that we name Ruth Mayhew with the VGH Founders Class.
The family was not able to attend the evening's event and sent their regrets and appreciation.
