A Heartfelt Thank You Letter

One family wrote a heartfelt thank you letter to health care workers statewide after the loss of their family member to COVID-19. Brad and Emily Slade wrote a letter to encourage health care workers after his father died on April 2. At 94 years old, Wally Slade, was the first patient to die from COVID-19 at Johnson Memorial Health in Franklin. While health care providers do everything they can to provide the best care for patients, unfortunately, some do not recover from the coronavirus.
