Notes to the Editor:

Sandy Johnson, who works Human Resources in Duluth, shares this note:

"Even our maintainence crew is 'here with you.' I recently witnessed Scott Maki from Maintainence assist an elderly patient who had a very squeaky walker. After asking her permission, he gave the walker a couple of squirts of lubricant and the problem was solved. She was so happy. I was delighted to witness this random act of kindness!"
