TINA WAS ONE OF THE FINEST NURSES I KNOW. I WORKED WITH HER AT MRMC AND CAME OVER TO JFK WITH HER. SHE WAS SO DEDICATED, KIND, AND EMPATHETIC TO THE PATIENTS AND FAMILIES THAT WE WORK WITH AT JFK. I CAN'T IMAGINE THE ICU WITHOUT HER, HER SMILE LIT UP THE PLACE. SHE ALWAYS HAD A GREAT ATTITUDE AND WORKED TIRELESSLY TO MAKE SURE THE PATIENT HAD THE BEST CARE EVER. SHE IS NOW A TRUE ANGEL UP IN HEAVEN. I HOPE SHE WATCHES OVER US ALL AND HELPS US TO BE HALF AS WONDERFUL AS SHE WAS. THANK YOU, TINA FOR ALL YOU'VE DONE IN YOU LIFE AND IN YOUR CAREER. LOVE, MARY
