Saint Francis Hospital
Saint Francis Hospital
2122 Manchester Expressway- Columbus, Georgia
The groundbreaking took place on October 23, 1948. Despite the delays in building materials that plagued much of the country, thanks to the construction boom, a skeleton frame was in place by Valentine’s Day 1949.
That day, a cornerstone was laid containing documents and newspaper accounts of the project from its inception. Rev. Henry J. Deimel, pastor of Columbus’ Holy Family Catholic Church said a blessing over the cornerstone and work continued.
A little more than a year later, on March 13, 1950, a five-story, red brick building was dedicated. Governor Herman Talmadge, the Auxiliary Bishop of Savannah-Atlanta, the Sisters of St. Francis, and more than 1,000 others turned out to christen the new hospital named for the Sisters’ patron saint – St. Francis of Assisi, who devoted himself to care for the sick and the poor.
