Milford Regional’s Tree of Life Raises Funds for Cancer Care

Milford Regional Medical Center’s Tree of Life event raised over $14,000 to benefit the Oliva Patient Comfort Fund. Over 190 guests attended this annual gathering which celebrates life and is a tribute for those who have survived cancer, who have battled the disease or who have been touched by cancer.

Members of the community enjoyed entertainment provided by The Holiday Mix quartet from The Sounds of Concord Barbershop Chorus. The group performed a 4-part a cappella harmony in barbershop style with true heart-felt emotion. Comments were made by Francis M. Saba, Milford Regional CEO, Edward J. Kelly, Milford Regional president and oncologists Michael Constantine, MD, and Mona Kaddis, MD, Dana Farber/Brigham and Women’s Cancer Center. The group then moved outside along a path lit by tribute luminaries to the front of the Medical Center for the tree lighting ceremony. Each candle on the tree is a symbol that honors or remembers a loved one affected by cancer. The tree will remain lit during the holiday season as a reminder of hope in the fight against cancer.

The Oliva Patient Comfort Fund will assist oncology patients purchase items to help make their lives more comfortable during their treatment at the Medical Center and Cancer Center. To receive information regarding donations to Milford Regional Medical Center please contact the Foundation Office, Milford Regional, 14 Prospect Street, Milford, MA 01757 or call (508) 422-2228.
