David Russell Lyman Society

The David Russell Lyman Society is named in honor of the hospital's first medical director. Membership is open to those who have named Gaylord in their estate plans or through a life income gift arrangement. Through their generosity and foresight, these donors perpetuate the important work that Dr. Lyman started more than 100 years ago.
