Cotner, Adm in istrator Glenview Hospital 7501 Glenview Drive Fort Worth, Texas 76118 Re: Frawley Drive Dear Bill: I appreciate your letter dated September 29, 1970, which gives me an opportunity to give you my own personal feelings and I beliéve the consenses of the council at the time the street was named Fraw ley Drive. At such time as this request was made, I cannot even remember by whom, there were some very reasonable and worthwhile sounding reasons that the unnamed street should be named for Mr. Frawley. I can assure you that none of those points mentioned in your letter ever occurred to me, and I believe I can say did not occur to any of the councilmen. If we should have been aware of the very valid points raised in your letter, then I can on Iy apologize for our ignorance. I can assure you that had these matters been brought to our attention, or had a request been made earlier for the nom ing of the street, it wou Id probably have been as read i Iy approved. I am confident that you can now appreciate the position of thecounc i I in be ing re luctant to reverse its decision to name the street due to the fact that Mr. Frawley has already been notified and as I understand it, dedication ceremonies have already been planned for the hospital facility which would include some reference to the street naming. I agree with you, ~ithout any reservation, that the naming of that street or any other street after Dr. Jermyn or the naming of this particular street as "Hospital Drive" woo Id have been very appropriate. Your kind indulgence in realizing the manner and circumstances under which this was presented to the coonc i I will be great Iy apprec iated . I _Yoyts very truly, ~ ---"- );~/I .......~_..'--.

NORTH RICHlAND HillS. FT. WORTH. TEXAS 76118· PHONE· (817) 281·2220 September 29, 1970 Mr. Marion Massey, Mayor City of North Richland Hi lIs 4101 Morgan Circle Fort Worth, Texas 76118 Dear Mayor Massey: Permit me to communicate with you by this letter some concern existing with the management team of this hospital relative to a recent decision made by the City Counci 1 in naming the access street located immediately west of Glenview Hospital. Much to our surprise we found this street was named Frawley one day, having been un-named the previous day. After some communication with the City Manager, I, was advised that this was an action that was taken by the City Counci 1 in recognition of a Mr. Frawley who is the owner of the new Schick Hospital, and that the street was named after him as an act of recognition and appreciation on the part of the municipality for his interest in North Richland Hi 115. This was a considerable shock to me, as an individual, and perhaps to the staff of the hospital that has been active within the City for the past ten years. As you know, Glenview Hospital paid for that street in its development. And as you probably know, one of our prior owners encouraged Miss Katherine Calloway to make the dedication to the City of North Richland Hi 115. This can be verified through John Ha11 who was previously City Manager. In as much as the hospital paid for the street, maintained it in excess of five years, made arrangements for it to be given to the City of North Richland Hi 115, it was somewhat of a shock to find it dedicated and named after an individual who was just coming into the area. There was an individual who was one of the first practitioners in this area; who established a clinic in this area; was one of the previous owners of this hospital; who hßs supported the city, via his tax dollars up unti 1 his death, and his estate is sti 11 contributing to the tax dollars of the community, that it would have been a fine recognition for the street to have been named after him. I am making reference to the late John W. Jermyn, M. D. who was involved in the City and contributed to its success and its accomplish- ments. I f the municipality felt that a recognition of such an individual was unwarranted, it could have been named something that would have given recog- nition to the entire area, rather than to one specific individual who WåS just coming into the area. I feel that Hospital Drive or some indication that the street was named after what the planning community of the city has . ,~~ldJ. ~\'h"':Y')lj ~\J~." <;". :f;:~..~.

In short, we were disappointed that the City chose to name the street in the manner in which they did, and I respectfully suggest that it would be a most appreciative gesture if the City saw fit to recognize an individual who was involved and an active participant up unti 1 his death by naming the street after him. And if that is not a proper or acceptable recommendation, then name it after the complex, rather than after an individua1 who is just moving into the area and has not been involved with its growth. Your careful eva1uation of this recommendation wi 11 be most appreciated.
