ords do not come easily
for Max Ernst of Orchard
Lake in trying to describe
his late wife, Ellen, who died nine
years ago. "She was a wonderful wife,
mother and friend;' he says.
After 40 years of a loving marriage,
two children (son Dr. Robert Ernst
and his wife, Deborah; daughter Julie
Neff and her husband, Steven) and six
grandchildren, Max wanted to find a
special way to honor Ellen's memory.
He turned to longtime friend, Marc
Sakwa, M.D., chief of cardiovascular
surgery at Beaumont Hospital, Royal
Oak. With Dr'. Sakwa's help, and sup-
port and encouragement from his
second wife, Debra, Max found the
project to name in Ellen's memory.
With a desire to save lives, Max
and Debra Ernst and family made a
$3 million gift to establish the Ernst
Cardiovascular Center in memory of
Ellen Ernst at Beaumont.
After it opens in October, the
4,357-square-foot Royal Oak facility
will feature the latest in 3-D echocar-
diography equipment, video consulta-
tion and six multidisciplinary clinics
for cardiovascular screening, heart
valve disease, atrial fibrillation, heart
failure, advanced coronary artery dis-
ease and abdominal aortic aneurysm.
"Max has always been a very gener-
ous man:' says Sakwa: "When he saw
the wonderful things we're doing here
in cardiovascular medicine, he quickly
became excited about our vision. This
is like a dream come true not only for
me, but for all of our cardiologists and
surgeons."
The center will enhance Beaumont's
position as a destination site and a
regional referral center for complex
cardiac surgical and medical care.
"Beaumont is recognized around
the world for its leadership in car-
diovascular medicine says Gene
Michalski, president and chief execu-
Debra and Max Ernst
tive officer, Beaumont Hospitals. "We
are deeply grateful to the Ernst family
for this exceptional gift in support of
our efforts."
One of the programs that espe-
cially drew the family's interest is
Beaumont's Healthy Heart Check
screening program to prevent sudden
cardiac death in young athletes. A por-
tion of the gift is earmarked to sup-
port the free community screenings of
high school students offered under the
program.
The next Healthy Heart Check
screening is scheduled for Saturday,
Oct. 16, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., at Oakland
University's Recreation and Athletic
Center. To register a student for a
free, in-depth heart screening, visit
Beaumont's web site at www.beau-
monthospitals.com or call Beaumont's
Physician Referral Service toll-free,
(800) 633-7377.
"What excites me most is helping
people before they have a heart attack:'
says Ernst, former executive vice presi-
dent and chief operating officer of
Arbor Drugs and a member of Temple
Israel in West Bloomfield.
"In years to come, when we look
back on all the lives that have been
saved in this center, the results will be
even more exciting." ❑
