Mon Health Stonewall Jackson Memorial Hospital in Weston recently received a donation of iPads and Android Tablets.
After experiencing the heartbreaking loss of their father, a Buckhannon family has provided the valuable gift of communication to COVID-19 patients at Mon Health Stonewall Jackson Memorial Hospital in Weston and Mon Health Medical Center in Morgantown.
Their donation of iPads and Android tablets will provide other families the opportunity to stay connected while staying apart from their loved ones hospitalized with COVID-19.
Tex E. Walton was admitted to the hospital with COVID-19 on Oct. 7, 2020, and succumbed to the virus on Oct. 20. His daughters, Sheila Perry and Pam Johnston of Buckhannon, could only communicate with him through cell phone and other devices.
