In November, we run our \u2018Hear for the Holidays\u2019 competition.<\/p>\n

This was our way of giving back to our community and ensuring that nobody has to needlessly live with hearing loss throughout the holiday season.<\/p>\n

We asked you to nominate somebody that deserves to win a pair of premium hearing aids as well as our advanced audiological level of service.<\/p>\n

You did not disappoint with 24 people nominated.<\/p>\n

But after much debate, we finally chose a winner and that was Larry Mayard, who was nominated by his wife, Jan.<\/p>\n

Her nomination read:<\/p>\n

“Sometimes he has difficulties understanding grandkids or wife and ringing in the ears all the time.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Larry is one of the best grandfathers you can ask for. He also loves taking them camping and showing them all about life\u2019s pleasures in the outdoors.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Please give Larry the chance to experience this without his hearing lost and ringing in ears before it drives him crazy.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks for a chance to win.”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

It really pulled on our heartstrings.<\/p>\n

We made the emotional phone call to share the good news and both Larry and Jan came to our offices to collect their prize.<\/p>\n

Larry\u2019s hearing was compressively tested and he was gifted my favorite premium hearing aids, the ReSound LinX Quattro.<\/a><\/p>\n

It means that Larry can now be himself once again and enjoy the special moments with his grandkids and wife.<\/p>\n

Not only does Larry\u2019s life improve, but it means that his grandkids can enjoy more special moments with their grandfather.<\/p>\n

If you didn’t win, then we’ll be announcing the runner-up in January.<\/strong><\/p>\n
