The Lima Memorial Hospital Auxiliary will hold its Annual Meeting on Thursday, December 4, 2025, to recognize this year’s Auxilians who have achieved the prestigious Life Membership award and install the 2026 Auxiliary Officers. The celebration will include a catered luncheon in honor of these accomplishments, along with special entertainment provided by Chuck Summers. 

Each year, Life Membership is presented to volunteers who have dedicated 20 years of service and 400+ hours, with at least 10 of those years spent as active, in-service volunteers. This year, the Auxiliary is proud to recognize:

• Wayne Hites
• Ken Lucas
• Linda Martz
• Edna McLaurin
• Anne Schiellerd

These honorees have collectively contributed 18,050 hours of dedicated service to Lima Memorial Health System, reflecting an extraordinary commitment to supporting patients, families and staff. The Auxiliary will also install its 2026 slate of officers, including:

• Jackie Binkley, President
• Tami Hurley, President-Elect
• Penney Rice, Treasurer
• Mindi Wells, Recording Secretary
• Jan McCluer, Corresponding Secretary

Lima Memorial Health System remains profoundly grateful for the many volunteers who give their time, talent and compassion to provide Great Care.
