After a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, the sold-out evening honored former Greenwich Hospital Board of Trustees Chair Arthur C. Martinez, Mrs. Elizabeth Martinez and family, as well as physician Dr. James A. Brunetti. Former Today Show co-host and longtime Riverside resident Kathie Lee Gifford delighted guests as the event’s master of ceremonies, and a live auction was led by renowned auctioneer Lydia Fenet of Christie’s Auction House. A poem was read from a book created by Emergency Department staff about their experiences during the pandemic. Throughout the reading, images of employees during the height of COVID-19 illuminated the stage. After, members of the frontline took to the stage and received a standing ovation. The backdrop was a reproduction of the mural created by artist Rick Garcia, commissioned by C. Parker Gallery as a gift to Greenwich Hospital.
