"The people in our organization spend literally thousands of hours each year working on and I think it's nice work is recognized. "This award means a lot to me partly because I've worked with the IEC in the past and have a lot of respect for that organization, and partly because this is the first year that the award has been given," Lindsey added. *• In announcing the award at the IEC's annual meeting, Ken Mitchell, the coalition's executive director, said, "Your group was an easy choice Hospital to break ground for medical arts building Nora C.
