We are fortunate at Margaret Tietz Center to have a very active Board of Directors. Henry Conston, Esq., one of the founders of Margaret Tietz, began his commitment to the Tietz Center when discussions about opening a nursing facility in Jamaica Hills, Queens was just a dream. His wise counsel and foresight helped in the establishment of the Margaret Tietz Center in 1971. Mr. Conston has contributed his constant care, commitment, and devotion to the Tietz Center for more than four decades. Mr. Conston was presented proclamations by Councilman Rory Lancman and Assemblyman David Weprin and a citation from Congresswoman Grace Meng which was read on her behalf. He was then given a special award from Margaret Tietz which read Henry Conston, Founder • Visionary • Humanitarian, for more than four decades of devoted care to Margaret Tietz Center. Those who attended included Mr. Michael Fassler, President and CEO of CenterLight Healthcare, as well as many Board Members, Senior Executive Staff Members and Margaret Tietz Executive Staff who expressed to Mr. Conston their appreciation for all of his valued time and efforts on behalf of Margaret Tietz and the residents we serve.
