Anna Margaret Moomaw Feild was actively involved in the Episcopal Churchwomen of the Diocese of New Jersey, eventually
becoming president of that group in the 1960's. While a member of that group she became aware of some needs of the Vellore
Christian Medical Hospital in Vellore, India. She worked with the U.S. Board of Directors of the hospital to collect enough S&H
Green Stamps to buy a fully outfitted roadside bus for medical care to be taken to the villages to people who could not get to the
hospital. As a result of this tremendous effort on her part, she was elected to membership of that Board and remained a member until
the late 1980's. In 1988 Anna Margaret and Robert Beverley moved back to the Falling Springs, VA property where they built a
new house to live in during their retirement years. It was there, on September 12, 2001, that she had a massive heart attack. She
was taken to the local hospital where emergency medivac helicopter transport to Charlottesville, VA was arranged with the
help of the Navy Dept. which dispatched two F-15 fighter escorts to accompany the helicopter. To my great sadness she never made it
to the hospital. She died of a second heart attack as the medivac helicopter entered the landing area for the University Hospital. If
you remember, this was the morning after the World Trade Center, Pentagon, and Pennsylvania airplane crashes. No flights were
permitted. They had to wait for the two F-15's to get to the airspace over Hot Springs before the helicopter could take off. The
personnel of all three aircraft did their best to save my mother, but she was too sick to survive.
