Ms. Keohane,
Maam, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served as a nurse in the USN during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

I am sad to read of Miss Keohane's death. She was one of my Nursing instructors while I was a student at Brockton Hospital School of Nursing. She was a great lady who, as it turned out was also a neighbor of mine. I will keep her in my prayers. My condolences to her many family members. Sincerely, Marjorie Enos, R.N.
