Pioneer Memorial a life saver
To the Editor:
Concerning Pioneer Memorial
Hospital in Heppner:
1 am not one to get involved in
affairs. But, seven years ago I was
fortunate enough to have the fa
cility to get to quickly.
Dr. Ed., Sheridan and staff, with
their knowledge, brought me
around, stabilized me and airlifted
me to Bend where I had bypasses
that saved my life. So for seven
years, I have been able to go on
with my job and the long hours it
involves.
If it had not been for them I
would not had a second chance.
I believe there are many oth
ers in this area that could say the
same.

Daycare, preschool provide quality care
To The Editor:
We would like to acknowledge
the hard work and dedication of
the board of directors, Mary
Brannon and Sue Norton, and the
staff and volunteers of Heppner
Daycare and Preschool.
When we first moved back to
Heppner the daycare and
preschool did not have the best
reputation. We have watched this
facility struggle to keep open,
and over the past year some
major changes have occurred,
improving
the
physical
condition,
the
inside
environment, the preschool
curriculum, and especially the
quality of interaction and care of
children.
Although we have not used the
child care services, we can
express our satisfaction with the
preschool. Conner is always
excited to talk about what he
does there, to share his art work
and the songs and stories he has
learned; he has also made great
friends with many of the other
children. There have been times
though when Conner has come
home tearful, just because he did
not want to leave.
Good job guys...keep it up.
