Thanks to technology, I am in constant ‘virtual’ touch with Holy Name’s leadership team. As soon as I began developing symptoms, I self-quarantined and was tested,” he said.

“Now more than ever, I’m grateful for the tireless work of Holy Name’s health care professionals, who are on the front lines of this national pandemic,” Maron added. “We are all in this together.”
