STEINBERG cont’d from page 1...<br />
In addition to his donation to <strong>Wentworth</strong>-<strong>Douglass</strong> <strong>Hospital</strong> (WDH) and<br />
a similar contribution to the Children’s Museum of NH, Steinberg gives<br />
generously of his time to serve on local committees and boards. He epitomizes<br />
Relyco’s Core Value of Community Service highlighted in a statement<br />
prominently displayed on his office desk - “Relyco recognizes that enriching<br />
the lives and welfare of the individuals within our communities is not a moral<br />
obligation, but an honor and a privilege.”<br />
According to <strong>Hospital</strong> President & CEO Gregory Walker, FACHE,<br />
<strong>Wentworth</strong>-<strong>Douglass</strong> <strong>Hospital</strong> is the grateful recipient of Steinberg’s service<br />
as Treasurer of the Board of Trustees, member of the <strong>Wentworth</strong>-<strong>Douglass</strong><br />
<strong>Hospital</strong> & Health Foundation Board and Chairman of The Works Family<br />
Health & Fitness Board. “We appreciate everything Mike has given to this<br />
<strong>Hospital</strong> in so many ways.” Walker said. “His energy, enthusiasm and sense<br />
of service are truly admirable. The donation from Mike and Laurie reflects a<br />
generosity that is deep and enduring.”<br />
Healthcare service is natural for Steinberg whose personal health has taken<br />
many unexpected turns. He survived a heart attack and open heart surgery a<br />
few years ago and early in <strong>2011</strong> was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Following<br />
successful robotic surgery at WDH, Steinberg quickly returned to his early<br />
morning racquetball sessions and fast-paced printing solution business. On a<br />
recent tour of Relyco’s headquarters in Dover, he discussed the evolution of<br />
a business that focuses on innovation and customer service. “We treat others<br />
as we would like to be treated,” Steinberg said. “It’s all about service in this<br />
business and every business. It’s the most important thing we do.”<br />
Thank you to Mike and Laurie Steinberg for their outstanding community<br />
commitment and very reliable service for others.<br />
New necklace pins are now available for<br />
purchase to support <strong>Hospital</strong> projects.<br />

Steinbergs donate $30,000 to WDH for<br />
Family Education Center<br />
Twenty-three years ago<br />
Mike and Laurie Steinberg<br />
named their company<br />
Relyco – a name that<br />
stands for “a company<br />
you can rely on.” During<br />
this time the Steinbergs<br />
also became a family “a<br />
community can rely on”<br />
to support programs and<br />
services that improve<br />
education, health care and<br />
family.<br />
(l-r) WDH President & CEO Gregory Walker, Mike and<br />
Laurie Steinberg with recognition event host Pat Brady “We firmly believe you<br />
have to give back,” Mike<br />
Steinberg said. He and his wife Laurie, a retired Title I teacher, and their family<br />
of three children and six grandchildren believe strongly in the importance of<br />
education and family. When considering a donation to <strong>Wentworth</strong>-<strong>Douglass</strong><br />
<strong>Hospital</strong>’s new Women & Children’s Center they chose to give $30,000 to<br />
name the Family Education Center. “It fit our commitment to community and<br />
education and family in every way,” Steinberg said.<br />
