Mayor Domenic J. Sarno issues a personal health related statement to the citizens of Springfield:
Dear Citizens of Springfield
I have been diagnosed with a form of cancer and will begin treatment ASAP. I have the utmost faith in my excellent medical team of primary care, Dr. Francis Murray; Dr. Phil Glynn, Director of Medical Oncology at Mercy Medical Center and the Sister Caritas Cancer Center; President of Mercy Medical Center Dr. Robert Roose, and staff – they’ve all been great. I expect to make a full and complete recovery. I will continue to execute my duties as Mayor during my recovery. I am particularly thankful that I have a wonderful wife and two amazing daughters by my side as we face this challenge. I ask that you respect my privacy and my family’s with regard to this matter. With sincere thanks for all the support you have shown me through the years.
Good health and God Bless.
Respectfully,
Mayor Domenic J. Sarno
P.S. And of course with the power of prayer and the legendary reputation of ‘The Energizer Bunny’ Sister Mary Caritas, she’ll scare the ‘you know what’ out of this too!
