Farewell to a friend
On March 1, Butler Health System and the community lost a
dear friend and humanitarian. Ida Findley passed away after
a brief illness.
Beginning in 1986, Findley served on the BHS Board of
Trustees for three terms, playing a significant role in leading
the hospital as it developed into a regional provider. She
then took a break from hospital service to care for her ail-
ing husband. After his death, she renewed her activities as
a member of the hospital’s Auxiliary, volunteering with the
Foundation, the education department and later the public
relations office. She held several positions with the Auxiliary
board and recently served as the volunteer coordinator. Her generosity made possible the
auditorium and learning center in the patient tower.
In addition to her hospital volunteer work, Findley was active in her church and several
other community organizations. Her wit, determination and can-do spirit will be missed at
Butler Health System and in the community it serves.

4 simple steps
to including us
in your will
You can support the Butler Health System Foun-
dation and our community with a planned gift
through your will.
Here are some basic guidelines:
1.
Decide what you want to give.
For example,
you can give:
»»
A specific bequest of a particular piece of
property, such as a work of art
»»
A general bequest, which is a stated sum of
money
»»
A residuary bequest, leaving the remainder of
your estate to the Foundation after all other bequests, debts and taxes have been paid
2.
Choose how the gift will be used.
You can designate how the Foundation will use the funds,
such as for charity care or hospital expansion. Or you can allow us to use the funds to meet our most
pressing needs.
Another option: Establish an endowment, which sets limits on the principal of the gift. The Founda-
tion would be able to use just a portion of the funds each year.
3.
Meet with your advisors.
An estate attorney can help you establish the bequest in a will or liv-
ing trust . And your tax advisor can tell you whether your gift is entitled to an estate tax charitable
deduction.
4.
Contact the hospital Foundation.
Let us know of your plans by calling
724-284-4716
or by
emailing Kris.Bowser@ButlerHealthSystem.org.
