We truly cannot believe we’ve survived ONE WEEK without Michael Farrell.

After 51 years of extraordinary leadership, mentorship, and service, Mike officially retired last Tuesday—and the hospital already feels different without his regular presence. Over five decades, he held nearly every major leadership role, including Pediatric Residency Director and Chief of Staff, shaping the careers (and lives) of generations of physicians and alumni.

While we’ll miss seeing him in the halls, we’re incredibly grateful that Mike isn’t going far. He will continue to volunteer on the Alumni Association Board and lead our Historical Committee, ensuring the stories and connections that define this place are preserved for years to come.

Congratulations Dr. Farrell — and thank you for everything. 💙
