I worked with a Janie at Abernethy first as a CNA then as a nurse and she was a first a wonder sweet happy person and Second a great Nurse. She had patience and was there to help and support, talked about her family and her beloved pets. I was so saddened to hear of this loss. I send my prayers to the family.
