Akron Children’s Family Library honors Dr. Louis Lame, who was a well-respected pediatrician at Akron Children’s. Upon his retirement in 1986, grateful patients and families established the Lame Fund as a tribute to his many years of devoted service. Contributions to the Lame Fund help keep the resources current. Contact the Akron Children’s Foundation at (330) 543-8340 if you would like to make a donation.
