Abstract

Introduction: Last Friday evening we had a memorial for our colleague, friend, and mentor, Jim Ledwith. It was a moving service thanks to speakers like Liam Burke, Beth Mazyck, Eric Rosenthal, Phil Fournier, and Abigail Gyamfi. The entire night was made possible due to the hard work of Karen Rayla (and her friend Jackie), Pam Tero, Linda Hollis, Heather Garron, and Linda Cragin - thank you.

One of the moving moments of the night was the reading of Jim Ledwith's letter of acceptance when he took over as the Medical Director of the Epworth Free Clinic in 2011. Below we share with you what Jim wrote all those years ago - the words speak volumes to who he was. Also, one of the rooms at the Epworth Free Clinic was dedicated in his name. We have included a photo of the plaque that now hangs in the room.

We miss you, Jim. You were the best of us.
