July 21 News from the Montana VA

BILLINGS — Montana VA Health Care System (Montana VA) is hosting a ribbon cutting at 11 a.m. on July 21 at the Benjamin Steele VA Clinic in Billings to unveil a Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Mobile Medical Unit (MMU). Montana VA is from page 26

Speedway, where he was the Pit Boss for the track. This was a position he held for several years, all while owning and working with a crew of his own, racing in the C Stock Class. We remember several trips out looking for clay to get the first track built.

In 1973 Dad left Plum Creek Sawmill as a Certified Lumber Grader, working there for 10 years, and purchased 93 Texaco from Gary Agler. It later became 93 Exxon. He launched two tow trucks into the community utilizing CB radios for communication: call sign “Yellow Fox.” Many friends gathered in the morning before work for a cup of coffee and figured out the plans for the day, not to mention what happened the day before. If that wasn’t enough, he found time to volunteer at the Polson Fire Department for many years.

In the summer of 1976, he met and married Donna Fuqua and to - gether they built a 65unit trailer park, which they operated for the better part of 20 years. Among his other duties was gathering firewood for the winter months where you might see as much as 60 cord of wood on the ready, all neatly stacked.

Heading into his retirement years, dad and Donna sold their trailer park and traveled south and west, visiting family and friends. He was also an icon at the many benches located in the Missoula Mall from thousands of shopping trips.

After 44 years of marriage, Donna passed and Dad could no longer stay in the Tribal family home, so we moved him to Arizona where he and Juanita reunited again and were together until his passing. Dad thoroughly enjoyed his bucket list trip to see the Barrett Jackson Auction and reminisced about many of the cars he saw there and that he had owned similar ones over the years.

Bill is survived by his children; sisters, Janice Cote, and Juanita Kimmel; granddaughters, Portia, Kayla, Sara and Caitlyn; grandsons, Marcus, Steven and several nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Donna; brother, Warren; sisters, Bonnie and Ellen.

There will be a small graveside service on Aug. 07, 2023, at 11 a.m. at the Missoula City Cemetery. Cremation

A Celebration of Life

Memorial Potluck picnic will be held in Marilyn Baltz’s honor on July 30 at her home place from 2:30-5:30 p.m.

It is hoped that all of her friends and acquaintances will join the family in remembrance of her.

also hosting a Heath Fair to help connect Veterans to their benefits.

The ribbon cutting and Health Fair are open to the public. The Health Fair will feature PACT Act information and has taken place.

Gordon Gerrish

KALISPELL — Gordon Floyd “Duff” Gerrish, 92, of Kalispell passed away June 25, 2023, in Kalispell. He is survived by his wife, Marian Gerrish. No services are being held at this time. Johnson-Gloschat Funeral Home and Crematory is caring for the family.

toxic exposure screenings. The ribbon cutting takes place at 11 a.m. and will be followed by public tours of the Mobile Medical Unit. Dr. Michele Madore, VA’s National TMS Program Director, will share information about this innovative program. The Health Fair goes from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 1766 Majestic Lane.

Montana VA’s new TMS Mobile Medical Unit is an innovative first-inthe-country concept for the Veterans Health Administration. The MMU is a specially designed, high-tech vehicle that will travel across Montana to provide TMS treatment for rural Veterans.

TMS therapy is a treatment option for Major Depressive Disorder for patients who have not achieved an adequate response with antidepressant med-

November ication and/or psychotherapy. Recent advances in TMS have allowed for a more rapid treatment (five days instead of six to eight weeks) that may be more effective than standard TMS.

Join us for food, drinks, memories and music.

According to Dr. Elizabeth Walter, the TMS Program Director, and Dr. Emily McMillan, the TMS Clinical Program Coordinator, “Rural Veterans can now access cutting-edge mental health care because of the mobile TMS medical unit. Major Depressive Disorder is a significant contributor to suicide and linked to jeopardized health. Our goal for the Montana TMS program is to improve access to high quality treatment, reduce cost and disability associated with treatment resistant depression and improve the quality of life for Veterans throughout Montana.”

TMS is a safe, non-invasive, and effective therapy that uses electromagnetic fields to stimulate

from page 27 nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. A TMS-trained psychiatrist prescribes and administers TMS treatments. The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved TMS in 2008 for treatment resistant Major Depressive Disorder.

“This is a tremendous innovation,” said Dr. Judy Hayman, Executive Director for Montana. “We are so honored that we will be the first VA in the country to bring TMS to rural Veterans. Because Montana is so large and many of our Veterans live in highly rural locations, they would not normally have access this this kind of therapy. Now, we can travel to bring this incredible therapy to help Veterans find healing from depression.”

The implementation of this program is made possible by a collaborative partnership with the VA VISN 19 Clinical Resource Hub and mentorship from the VA National TMS Program.

After the ribbon cutting, Veterans and their families are invited to tour the mobile medical unit and also stop by the Montana VA health fair to learn more about services and benefits. The Veterans Benefits Administration as well as Montana VA staff representing over 10 services and programs will be available to provide information and answer questions (such as for enrollment/eligibility, mental health, women Veteran services, toxic exposure screenings, and more).

One goal of the health fair is to help connect Veterans who may have expanded eligibility and benefits thanks to the 2022 passage of the Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics (PACT) Act. There is no deadline to apply for PACT Act benefits, but Veterans are encouraged to file their PACT Act claim by Aug. 9, which may make them eligible to receive benefits backdated to Aug. 10, 2022. VA enrollment and eligibility experts will be available at the health fair to answer questions. Veterans may learn more about the PACT Act at www.VA.gov/PACT or by calling 1-800-MY-VA-411.
