“My name is Anna and I was one of Bobs nurses while he was fighting the toughest fight throughout his hospital stay… He was so kind and such a strong fighter and his smile lit up the room every time I was with him. Every time I would walk past his room he would give me a big wave and a smile. He will be dearly missed and I will never forget taking care of his precious soul. “
