They designated the funds to support the newly established Hall and Hall Men’s Cancer and Wellness Endowment at the Mecosta County Medical Center Foundation and the gas card program for patients receiving assistance from the Wheatlake Center for Cancer and Wellness. Fred Myers Sr., who passed away from cancer in 1999, was the owner of Fred Myers Excavating and left a legacy of caring for others and in making certain that friends and neighbors had what they needed as they battled cancer. “We are grateful for the generosity of the Myers family,” said Susan Wheatlake. “The Hall and Hall Endowment will provide support for the cancer and wellness needs of men and their families.” She continued, “Support for our gas card program will help those who need assistance with the cost of transportation to medical appointments and treatments.” For more information about the Wheatlake Center for Cancer and Wellness or to make a gift to the Hall and Hall Men’s Cancer and Wellness Endowment, please contact Debra Jacks, Mecosta County Medical Center Foundation at 231.592.4327 or djacks@mcmcbr.com.
