I am thankful, and I know I am HOME

May 10, 2022

Winona Health means a lot to me. When I first moved to Winona in 2016, I knew very little about the community or town. In 2018, my wife had a ruptured appendix that made her fall very ill fast. Winona Health was there to help her in her time of need. Not only that but also had a great service that helped my family out financially in the Ben and Adith Miller Patient Care Fund. In 2019, I began working for Winona Health and started donating back to this fund in hopes to one day work long enough to repay the amount I used plus more. Winona Health, my co-workers and leadership have provided me with opportunities to learn, grow and mature in my profession and for that I will forever be thankful. Winona is much like many areas I have lived. Those who have been here awhile can share stories of the way things were, while those new to the area get to bask in the glory of the beautiful scenery. Winona has its own history–from the early struggles to the current booming business growth and development. I go on many road trips each month that take me away from Winona and Minnesota in general, and yet at the end of every trip when I see Fleet Farm, Winona Health and the YMCA building, I know I am HOME. ⁠— James Every Moment Matters.
