As the recently named Chairman of the Board of Governors for the Honolulu Shriners Hospital, James N. DeMoss believes it his job to provide support for the leaders that staff the hospital. The staff of this hospital is its key to success. We have outstanding people here that put in countless hours to ensure quality care.
Every person is oriented towards the care of our patients.
DeMoss would like to raise the hospital's profile by hosting more visitors and increasing opportunities for the public to volunteer their time and to interact with the hospital's patients. Born and raised in Illinois, DeMoss was brought up in a traditional family that attempted to map out his future. Feeling the urge to travel rather than preach, DeMoss decided after his freshman year at Illinois Wesleyan University to join the U.S. Air Force. And, travel he did. Between his enlistment, in 1950, and his eventual retirement, in 1971, DeMoss visited all 50 states and twelve foreign countries on four different continents.
