Mr. Horsely,
The review as I have written before of the Leroy Hospital is informative and factual. I was born there in 1951. My name is Deborah Cluett Sage Rockefeller. My mother was the Arrow Shirt heiress Constance Cluett and my father in law was Mr. Winthrop Rockefeller .....I would have tried to save the Hospital had I known of it?s impending difficulty....April 2020
