End of aan Era
It’s the end of an era. As you all know, after nearly 40 years at Torrance Memorial Medical Center and twelve years at its helm, Craig Leach is enjoying a well-earned retirement and the reins have been passed to the capable hands of Keith Hobbs. While many medical centers have armed camps – the medical staff versus the administration – TMMC has remained a unified, smoothrunning family, which I believe has largely been due to Craig’s remarkable leadership. He’s been the GOAT of CEO’s, leading with integrity, compassion and vision. Mark Lurie, MD
Through this changing of the guard, one thing has remained constant – the unceasing support of our community. Dating back to the 2022 Holiday Festival, we started on a three-year capital campaign to expand and revamp our Emergency Department. Our ED is one of the busiest in LA County, serving even more patients than Cedars-Sinai. The new ED will not only double the patient capacity but will be revitalized with state-of-the-art monitoring equipment and private rooms. There has been an incredible donor response from all of you to this initiative. We are all grateful for your generosity and excited about the completion of this vital project. As expected, Laura, Judy and the Foundation staff have done a fantastic job over the year with initiating and nurturing this fund-raising campaign. We continue to appreciate how critical you all are in maintaining and enhancing our award-winning Medical Center. I sincerely thank you and wish you and your family a very happy holiday.
Gratefully,
Mark Lurie

We Thank You I cannot believe this is my 23rd Holiday Festival… my family looks forward to this fun and entertaining week-long tradition as much as I do. We cherish the many memories from each, and every year. We are blessed with our talented, hardworking, dedicated volunteers who return annually to support this event. Thank you to Carolyn Snyder, who has guided us through Holiday Festival for 39 years, and to Bev George and Michelle Rand, who also enthusiastically lead our troops of volunteers. Laura Schenasi
We have raised millions of dollars to support the vital work of Torrance Memorial… without your health you cannot live life to its fullest. I am grateful to work with my wonderful colleagues in the Foundation office – Judy, Sandy, Sophia, Lisa, Karen and Jill. In addition, I want to thank our outstanding physicians, nurses and staff who do their best, with a smile every day, to care for our patients and families. I send my best wishes to you and your loved ones during this holiday season… With sincere appreciation,
Laura Schenasi Executive Vice President Torrance Memorial Foundation

Thank you for 40 years!!
Holiday Festival returns for its 40th year to raise money for Torrance Memorial Medical Center in support of the hospital’s patients and programs, and to raise the tent for our beloved community holiday event. When I began volunteering for Festival of Trees in 1983, one thing stood out to me - the joy on people’s faces. The comfort and joy of twinkling lights, seasonal greenery and beautiful music are what make it the enchanting event that has become a tradition for families of all ages. One particular family really touched me… Their kids had never seen anything like this, their faces just lit up and it was so magical. That experience has kept me coming back to the festival for 39 more years, serving as a Volunteer, Design Chair and Festival Chair.
Carolyn Snyder
Since the beginning, Holiday Festival has always been a community event, so I would like to extend a special THANK YOU to everyone who makes it happen. From the people who attend, to the hundreds of volunteers, to the sponsors and major donors whose generosity and support enable us to continue this special tradition and event. We couldn’t appreciate you more. THANK YOU – to the Torrance Memorial Foundation Staff - we so appreciate your personal efforts and acknowledge this event is much more than a job to you. Thank you for all your extra support during the year and for always being there to help. A SPECIAL THANK YOU - to the many people who lend their help to this event with their time, treasures and talent. Many thanks to our entertainers for sharing your talent during the Festival, and to our amazing volunteers who work from January to November shopping and creating all the beautiful tree designs and items sold in the boutique. Lastly, THANK YOU ALL for joining us as we celebrate this 40-year Holiday Festival milestone … and best wishes for a wonderful holiday season!
