St. Luke’s McCall Foundation recently hosted a heartfelt celebration to dedicate the new Healing Garden and unveil the “Shelter” sculpture at St. Luke’s McCall.

This beautiful garden was made possible through the generosity of Dr. Ed Droge and is dedicated in memory of his late wife, Mary Lou Droge. Designed as a peaceful space for reflection and renewal, the garden welcomes patients, visitors, and staff with its vibrant array of flowers and plants, along with a soothing water feature.

The event also marked the unveiling of Shelter, a powerful sculpture by artist Benjamin Victor. Commissioned through the generosity of Maureen O’Keeffe-Wing and Vern Wing, Victor sought to capture the essence of healing and care—the universal touch offered by caregivers throughout life. The sculpture bears the inscription:

“Offered to uplift the spirit and inspire healing for all who pass through these doors.”
