Mary Virkler has been a dedicated volunteer at Jupiter Medical Center since 2019 and embodies essence of selflessness and compassion in her service. A former high school science teacher, Mary wanted to continue making a difference in the community after retirement and she now dedicates her time twice a week in two volunteer roles – as a friendly greeter and in the Emergency Room, restocking supplies. Her warm demeanor and kind words bring comfort and encouragement to patients and their families during uncertain times.
Mary’s passion for volunteering is infectious. She uses her teaching background to train new volunteers and even inspired her husband to volunteer at Jupiter Medical Center, where he serves in pastoral care. For Mary, volunteering is a calling that allows her to profoundly impact lives, lending an ear to concerns and providing a purpose not only to others but also enriching her own life.
