Fanny H., 84, Lower Burrell, PA

Fanny Hughes, 84, recently had her wish for hearing aids granted, thanks to the Western Pennsylvania Chapter of Twilight Wish Foundation and the generosity of HearWell Center of Forest Hills. Hughes, a resident of Lower Burrell, needed hearing aids, but couldn’t afford the cost on her fixed income.  Thanks to Dr. Suzanne Yoder, audiologist and owner of HearWell Center who donated the cost of the hearing aids, Hughes’ wish came true.  Her quality of life will now be greatly improved as Hughes can now talk on the phone, be a part of conversations and communicate more clearly.  In her younger years, Hughes was very active in her family church, First Baptist Church in New Kensington, where she sang in the choir and was involved in the missionary program.  When her health allows, Hughes still participates in a weekly bible study group at her senior housing complex.  Pictured, Fanny Hughes with Dr. Suzanne Yoder.
