Atlantic General Hospital celebrated the commitment and service of Board
of Trustees Chairman, John “Jack” H. Burbage, Jr. at its recent
Corporation meeting.
Jack has served as an AGH Board of Trustees member since 2007, and while
he has officially stepped down from his role as Chairman, will remain
an integral part of the Board. He was voted in as Chairman in November
2011, serving in that role for the last three years. In addition to his
involvement with the Board of Trustees, Jack has been a driving force
in philanthropic efforts for the AGH Foundation and has helped them surpass
their goals for the past several years.
At the recent AGH Corporation meeting, Jack was presented with a gift recognizing
his extraordinary service as Chairman of the Board of Trustees. He has
been incredibly generous sharing his time and expertise with AGH and its
efforts to be the leader in caring for people and advancing the health
for the residents and visitors to our community. “Jack is a great
leader in our community, and he has helped guide AGH through a tremendous
period of change. Jack has been a great friend and mentor to me, and we
will always appreciate his work for Atlantic General,” Michael Franklin,
President and CEO.
