To the family of Regina Hicks,while looking at the paper i was completely blown away I meet her and Mr. Bell at the Drs. Office where they are patients and from the first visit i could tell she was sweet person.Not a visit went by when we didn"t talk and hold a conversation about anything i wasn't just her nurse and she my patient we became friends, whenever i would see one of them i always asked where's your shadow and the respond would be outside waiting,she is a wonderful person and i will miss seeing her at the clinic,but GOD had a better plan for her and she is resting in land of the lord.
