Town Historian Shares Glimpse of the Past, Memorial Hospital

November 10, 2016 - Buster Bounds, the local town historian, has recently been working on a project documenting the demolition of the former Shelby Regional Medical Center on Hurst Street which was also formerly Memorial Hospital. The land is currently being prepared for the construction of a new church building.

The first video is an interview for the Coffee Shop Cafe which he recorded in 1993 with the hospital's new administrator, Tony Zurbrugg. The renovation of the medical facility had just been completed.

The second video is a four minute project that covered months of work - the razing of the building.
