So thankful to have Skiff Medical Center

To the editor:

I called 911, gave them my address and said I had an emergency. Next thing I knew, an ambulance pulled in the driveway and took me to the Skiff Medical Center emergency room.

They solved my problem and I could return home.

We’re fortunate to have Skiff donated to the city by Mary Francis Skiff and to have the 911 emergency number to call.

Everyone should have that number by their telephone in use in case of an emergency.
