Here is an email sent by Charlie Hawkes:
Good Morning All,
I`m just sending out a short note for now to thank you all. Recently, Uncle Jack sent you all a note telling you about how Lockport Memorial Hospital was entered in a contest to win an MRI. He encouraged you to vote and to vote often to help us win. I`m pleased to tell you that your efforts were not for naught. It was announced Friday, January 25th at 8:00 that Lockport Memorial Hospital had indeed won the MRI. There was a live telecast over the Internet on winanmri.com that I believe will be shown again later.
I just wanted to thank you all and let you know how we did!
For Mary, myself, the people in our town and Lockport Memorial Hospital,
Thank you again!!!!
Siemens Medical Solutions, USA Inc. announces the winner of the 2007 Win An MRI Contest:
Lockport Hospital, Lockport, NY.
Congratulations!
Lockport Hospital is the recipient of a brand new MAGNETOM® ESSENZA – one of Siemens’ latest developments in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology. Lockport won the MRI – worth approximately $800,000. Like most community hospitals in this country, Lockport has struggled with how to afford a state-of-the-art MRI machine. With this new MAGNETOM ESSENZA, Lockport will be able to expand the diagnostic care that it can provide to its community, better addressing their healthcare needs.

I gather that quite a few of us made sure to cast votes for Lockport's hospital to win the MRI. See the benefit of a big family?!? Congratulations, Charlie, Mary and Lockport!
It's cool to see how using family power can help produce great community benefits. (Well, okay, probably others voted, too, but I'm counting this as OUR success!)
I'm glad to hear about this here, on my favorite website."
