The Loman C. Trover Healthcare Award is presented annually to a member of our community that has had a profound impact on healthcare in our region. Past winners have included physicians, board members, former hospital leaders, and community members. We present this award each year during the Hopkins County Regional Chamber of Commerce's annual meeting which we were excited to host this year.
This year's Loman C. Trover Healthcare Award winner was the Barry & Gail Eveland Family.
Barry and Gail are both former nurses in our organization, but they never lost their passion for healthcare or for the people in their community. Their career paths may have changed, but Barry continued to serve on our hospital Board of Directors and on our Foundation Board where he has been a champion for our organization and demonstrated his enduring commitment to local healthcare and the people helped within these walls. Two of the larger donations the Eveland Family Foundation have made to us are the creation of the CCU’s Eveland Serenity Garden and the purchase of our transportation van which has aided more than 700 patients so far.
Thank you, Eveland family, for all you do to support Baptist Health Deaconess Madisonville and the community around you. Congratulations!
