Early on in her life she was saved through the excellent medical care provided by Dr. Richard Hosbach and the gentle nurses at Chenango Memorial Hospital. This was followed by wonderful care for over 20 years with Dr. Robert Miller in Allentown until the disease advanced to where a lung transplant was needed. Then came Duke Medical and the loving, talented folks who take tender care of these “Transplant Warriors”. The Lung Transplant team, the nurses of Duke 7800, ICU’s and 3100 are true angels. The donors are the saviors that bring a chance and hope of new life. We would be no where without organ donors.

J. Michael (Mike) Enyedy II, age 87, passed away on Monday, February 6, 2023.
Mike was Wilmington's Hospital Engineer, overseeing two of the largest hospital construction projects in the City's history, the construction of Christiana Hospital and the first major addition to Nemours Children's Hospital.
Mike began his construction career as an officer in the United States Naval Construction Battalions, better known as the Navy Seabees. He served two tours of duty in Vietnam, followed by additional duties leading the construction of refit facilities for the Trident submarine program and ending his 20-years of active duty at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis at the rank of Commander.
Following his naval service, he joined the Alfred I. duPont Institute in 1978 to oversee the construction of a major addition to the Nemours Children's Hospital. Following completion of the project, he joined the Medical Center of Delaware to transform a corn field in Christiana into a 700-bed hospital, which was then the largest such facility built from the ground up in the nation. After construction was complete, he continued as the Head of Facilities for the Medical Center, overseeing further expansions at both the Christiana and Wilmington Hospitals, which comprised over one million square feet of state-of-the-art healthcare facilities. He retired from full-time work at the Medical Center in 2002 and continued to provide consulting support until 2018.
