Dr. Joseph Trunfio helps Dr. Grant Parr don a ceremonial medal and Dr. Linda Gillam presents a commemorative lab coat to Dr. John Brown III

PARR EXCELLENCE On Feb. 25, 2015, 90 well-wishers turned out to celebrate the establishment of the Dr. Grant V.S. Parr Chair in Cardiovascular Surgery and the investiture of Dr. John Brown III as the first holder of the chair. Lead donors Anesthesia Associates were joined by nearly 100 other benefactors in raising $2 million to endow the chair, which honors Dr. Parr as the founder of the cardiac surgery program. The 27-yearold program now handles 1,500 open-heart surgeries each year. Chairman of the Foundation Board Chris Baldwin served as master of ceremonies for the program, which featured remarks by Atlantic Health System President and CEO Joe Trunfio and Huck Chair of Cardiovascular Medicine Dr. Linda Gillam. Both Dr. Parr and Dr. Brown received commemorative medals.
