Legacy Award

The Hartwigs have become synonymous with service—through their pharmacies and to their communities and UMKC. Before his death, David served on the UMKC Alumni Governing Board, was mayor of Marshall, Mo., and served on the Missouri Division of Family Services Medical Advisory Committee. Steven is on the School of Pharmacy Dean’s Advisory Council, and Matt and his wife Lisa are members of UMKC’s Robert H. Flarsheim Society.

 

Is a dependable pharmacy important to small communities? Matt: The pharmacist is the most accessible health care professional in any community, but in small towns, people know their pharmacist—not just at the pharmacy, but also at a football game or the grocery store.

 

D. Matthew Hartwig (B.S.P. ’92), Lisa C. Hartwig (B.A.’90, M.A. ’98, School of Education)What makes pharmacists and teachers among the most trusted people in a community? Lisa: Teachers and pharmacists have a huge impact on a community. You have to put what’s best for your students and patients first.

 

What do you consider your greatest accomplishment? Steve: Being a good member of the community.

 

What’s one thing you’d like to do before you die? Matt: There’s a new model of health care coming that is more patient-centric. One of my goals is to make sure the pharmacist plays a key role in that.

 

What do you consider your greatest accomplishment? Steve: I see Matt following in his dad’s footsteps in a lot of ways.

Bill: That’s the first thing that came to my mind, too: Matt being a good businessman and following in his dad’s footsteps in giving back to communities.
