Frederic Powers Obituary

POWERS-Frederic B. Sound Shore Health System mourns the passing of our dear friend and colleague, Frederic B. Powers. Together with his family, Fred was a steadfast supporter of the Sound Shore Medical Center of Westchester and a devoted member of the Board of Governors. He served from 1967 to 1983, and returned in 1987 to the present. During this time he served as Vice Chairman in 1990, Chairman from 1994 to 1997, Chairman of the Sound Shore Health System from 1999 to the present, and on the Pinnacle Board from 1999 to the present as Chairman. His commitment to providing his community with the highest level of health care services by furthering the mission of the Medical Center will be forever remembered at Sound Shore. We will miss his guidance and support. Our deepest sympathies are extended to his wife, Ginny, and their children and grandchildren. Lawrence J. Ruisi, Chairman John R. Spicer, President and CEO

To the entire Powers Family:



Our condolences on the untimely death of Fred. My husband was part of the Rawlplug/Powers team for 27 years as an engineer in New Rochelle. I was saddened to see Fred's obit come across my desk yesterday for publication. It is very unique and fitting that here in Florida, I would be the one to personally see that Fred's obit was published.

Mr. Powers was a man made for Greatness! In just the seven years I knew him; he blessed me with his friendship and wisdom. He embraced me with open arms once I started at Powers. He will be missed!!!!
