Pete, and Bethany, my heart and prayers go out to you and the rest of your family. I had the honor of working with Miki for over 12 years in the NICU. She was a great person, a talented nurse, and a teacher too many nurses that had the privilege of working with her. Bethany, I remember when you first came home to Miki and Pete, she talked about you non-stop, while smiles galore! You changed her life, you...made her complete. I will miss her as many others will too, but, we can smile in knowing that she was a good person and touched so many lives. May God bless you all, and you close at this sad time.
