Rev.
found that gifts to the Heart
Association provide a gratifying
way to horwr the memory of
relatives and friends who have
died of heart disease These
thoughtful tributes also give
hope to the living because me-
morial gifts are used to sup-
port research, education and
community service, aimed at
reducing the toll of the cardio-
vascular diseases- the greatest
cause of mortality and disabili
ty in our community and in the
nation.
When a memorial gift is re-
ceived, the Heart Association
immediately sends an appropri-
ate acknowledgement card to
the bereaved family indicating
ilies. '
