More than 200 walkers representing Parma Community General Hospital were among the estimated 9,000 participating in the Start! Heart Walk downtown on August 21. The Parma Hospital team included President & CEO Terrence G. Deis, Chief Financial Officer Barry Franklin and team captain Dave Miller, manager of Cardiovascular Services and coordinator of the hospital’s efforts to raise nearly $20,000 towards research and education about America’s most predominant disease. Employees and physicians brought spouses, children and even their dogs to participate in the walk, which kicked off from Mall C on a pleasantly cool morning.
