Grays Harbor Community Hospital welcomed its first baby of 2021, Lovayah Rain Hess, Jan. 5 at 1:57 a.m.

“Lovayah is a healthy baby girl weighing in at 6 pounds, 9 ounces,” said Christopher Majors, hospital spokesman. “Her parents, Angela and Dominic, have been glowing with joy with the arrival of the newest member of Grays Harbor.”

Primary care nurse Jeannette Khoury, RN, and the rest of the team at the hospital’s Family Birth Center helped to support Lovayah and Angela during their stay.

“Not only were we honored to welcome Lovayah to the Harbor, but so were some of our community partners,” said Majors. “Walmart donated a laundry basket full of useful items including a $100 gift certificate, Harbor Blooms donated a beautiful flower arrangement with a very cute duck vase, and Project Linus donated two handmade quilts from local quilt makers.”
