In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, Steve Carell recorded a thank-you video for a hospital near and dear to his heart.
In a video released Wednesday, the actor, who was born in Concord and grew up in Acton, thanked the staff of Emerson Hospital in Concord, where his mother worked as a nurse for more than 30 years.
“I like to consider myself sort of an alumni of Emerson Hospital because I was born there. I was voted Cutest Baby of 1962,” Carell said. “Also, my mom was a nurse at Emerson for over 30 years, so Emerson and I go way way, way back.”
Carell joked that he had “great memories of being incredibly sick” at Emerson, before thanking frontline staff members for their work.
“I just want to say thank you folks for everything you’re doing,” Carell said. “It’s greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work.”
