I was saddened to hear that Mindy had passed on and send my sincere wishes for Peace to her family. I am an OT that worked with Mindy many years ago at National Orthopedic Hospital. I was reminiscing about the folks I worked with all those years ago when I saw Mindy's obituary. I remember her as being very dedicated to her patients and her profession. She was very intelligent and was always ready to take on a challenge. I know it has been awhile since her passing, but please know that she was a tribute to the OT profession and respected.
