JEFFREY AND SADIE FORCHELLI FEATURED
IN ST. FRANCIS HOSPITAL’S HEARTBEAT MAGAZINE
(Mineola, February 3, 2009) Forchelli, Curto, Deegan, Schwartz, Mineo, Cohn & Terrana, LLP’s Managing Partner
Jeffrey D. Forchelli and wife Sadie were featured in the
Winter 2008-2009 edition of Heartbeat, the magazine of Roslyn,
New York’s St. Francis Hospital, also know as “The
Heart Center.”
Because of their strong desire to give back to the community
and their friendship with the late Harry T. Barbaris, M.D.,
Director of Surgery and Urologist at St. Francis, the Forchellis
recently donated $250,000 to the Hospital in his memory.
“If you knew Harry Barbaris, you would donate to St.
Francis Hospital too,” said Mr. Forchelli. “Harry
was a true Samaritan. He was a wonderful representative
of St. Francis.”
Mrs. Forchelli, a retired real estate manager, agreed. “We
had the utmost respect for Dr. Barbaris. He was a super
guy. When he passed on we wanted to do something in his
memory.”
Mr. Forchelli, who also donates to his alma maters, Brooklyn
Law School and Wagner College, recently became a member
of St. Francis Hospital’s Development Committee, which
provides oversight for all of the Hospital’s fundraising
efforts.
“St. Francis is a place like no other hospital. If
I had to compare the Hospital to a person, it’s someone
with the big heart, who is concerned with everyone,”
said Mr. Forchelli. “That attitude permeates the place
from Dr. Alan Guerci right down to the staff, and that is
what makes this a special place. We certainly plan to continue
to be supportive of the Hospital for years to come.”
