> The Hall of Fame Inductees: Mary Breckinridge > http://www.nursingworld.org/hof/brecmx. > http://www.nursingworld.org/hof/brecmx. Folks in memory of a very special lady who helped bring me into this world, her KENTUCKY festival week will end this 5th of October 2002. Hope those who do not know her will visit Leslie County, KY now or in the future. She was a lady who stepped into the business world with high ideals, in a very desolate area of the United States with one main purpose in life, to bring medical care to those who need, at a critical time in history. The legacy of Mary Breckinridge is still ongoing for such a special lady, who could be a part of so many family genealogies in her lifetime.
