We chose to meet here for many reasons but one worth sharing first is the history of the Thabes family in the Brainerd Area; both Dr. Thabes and his wife believed that citizens should serve their communities and states. They did not let the busy life of a doctor and a doctor’s wife keep them from participating fully in worthwhile activities. Dr. Thabes was known as a leader of his profession having served as a president and secretary of the Upper Mississippi Medical society and having been a member of the American College of Surgeons and American Medical association. Mrs. Thabes started her career as a teacher in the public schools in Brainerd. After she married Dr. Thabes she interested herself in the public health problems as well as carrying on her interest in the schools of the city. Let’s remember the good works begun by the Thabes family and continue the noble mission of service and unselfish devotion to the interest of the community as a whole.
