Two local businesses helped bring holiday cheer to Memorial Hospital at Easton recently with the donation of decorated trees from the 2011 Talbot Hospice Festival of Trees.

PNC Bank generously donated a tree from the 2011 Talbot Hospice Festival of Trees to the Same Day Surgery unit at MHE. The tablestop tree will greet patients, family members and staff throughout the holiday season.

The Pediatrics Unit at MHE will be a little brighter during the holiday season thanks to a donation from SeaWatch International. The Snoopy tree will remain in the playroom of the Pediatric unit to bring some extra holiday happiness to children and their families.
