We extend our deepest gratitude to the McCarl Family!

For three generations and over four decades, the McCarls have dedicated their time, talents, and hearts to ensuring all those that we serve can live life to the fullest. From Fosterโ€™s vision to Kevin, Jim, and Michael ~ and the many family members, friends, and colleagues theyโ€™ve rallied along the way ~ their impact is immeasurable! We are blessed that the naming of our sensory room, located at our Intermediate Care Facility, will honor their familyโ€™s legacy. May this space bring excitement, learning, and independence to those we serve, and may it bring the McCarls the joy of knowing the difference they continue to make! ๐Ÿซถ

Blessed Mary Angela Truskowska, foundress of the Felician Sisters, gifted her sisters and all who follow her example with a powerful legacy. Her life was rooted in faithfully doing Godโ€™s will, responding to the needs of the Church, and committing herself to prayer, sacrifice, and service.

Her legacy lives on through the five Core Values of the Felician Sisters, which continue to guide every Felician sponsored ministry:

๐Ÿ’™ Respect for Human Dignity
๐Ÿ’™ Compassion
๐Ÿ’™ Transformation
๐Ÿ’™ Solidarity with People in Need
๐Ÿ’™ Justice and Peace

Each year at McGuire Memorial, staff members nominate colleagues who truly embody these values in their daily work. This award honors individuals who demonstrate respect, compassion, service, and a deep commitment to justice and peace, bringing Blessed Mary Angelaโ€™s mission to life in meaningful ways.

Crystal and Adam exemplify these ideals and walk faithfully in the footsteps of Blessed Mary Angela, helping to carry her legacy forward.

The Grinch struck McGuire Memorial!!

From reading Christmas stories (in his own Grinchy style), to โ€œborrowingโ€ a few presents, and even making a surprise cameo as Taylor Swiftโ€ฆhe tried to steal the show!

Donโ€™t worry! Our elves (and maybe a few Swifties) were on the case and caught him red-handed! ๐Ÿ˜‚

And as the Grinch realized after all, โ€œMaybe Christmasโ€ฆmeans a little bit more.โ€๐Ÿ’š
