and Jewish Convalescent & Nursing Home.
"I was honored to have been part of such an important event, where the
beneficiaries of our community's generosity will be the patients and their
families who rely on the many vital health care programs and services offered
throughout LifeBridge Health," said Lynn Abeshouse, chair of the Magic of Life
Gala and managing principal of Abeshouse Partners, a commercial real estate
brokerage firm. Joining Abeshouse as co-chairs were Thomas Obrecht, president of
