Hospital board member Eddie Nichols of Wauneta tendered his resignation following the board’s regular meeting June 20.
    Nichols became a member of the board after his appointment by the county commissioners in 2005.
    Nichols said this week that he and wife, Donna, had discussed him leaving the board after the bond election due to some health issues.
    He said his departure wasn’t  related at all to the bond election that did not pass.
    He said he’d like the commissioners to appoint someone from the Wauneta area to give the community a voice on the board.
