The Miriam Hospital Centennial Celebration
Honors The Late Alan G. Hassenfeld

“As Honorary Co-Chair of the Centennial Campaign and Life Trustee of The Miriam Hospital Foundation Board, Alan was an unwavering champion for our mission. He believed wholeheartedly that the hospital was worthy of bold goals and he challenged us to aim higher and dream bigger. He gave generously of his time, offering strategic insight, heartfelt advocacy, and constant encouragement. Tireless and deeply invested, he never wavered in his support.

“Alan’s dedication to The Miriam was rooted in a proud family legacy-one he carried with grace, humility, and a profound sense of purpose. In every conversation, he reminded us why our work matters and inspired us to envision what more we could achieve together.”
