In David Meyerings letter to the editor published in the July 4 edition of the paper, the last section of the letter should have read, Hospitals are closing all over the nation because of demographics and mandated but unfunded congressional requirements that emergency room care be given to anyone who shows up. Now, here we are, barely keeping our heads above water and we pass a bond to double the size of our facilities while reducing the staff. The unfunded was erroneously printed at unfounded.
