Elvira Orso

I was Assistand Dean at Maria Regina College and then Program Administrator at SU's Contiuing Education Center for the Public Service when I worked with Dear Elvira to assist her in developing the Medical Assistant's organization in Syracuse and in New York state. Elvira was a dynamo: totally decent, professional, dedicated and in her efforts indefatigable to advance her profession. She taught, guided, prodded and encouraged me to help her. Memory of Elvira will always be a blessing. Michael...

She was absolutely phenomenal. My best, funniest memory while working there in the office was when I came in early and it was a sunny spring day. I put all the trees in the office outside into the sun. Elvira walked in and said who put the fake trees outside? Right to the point! Mike taught me a lot. But her and Nick were a stability that I needed at the time. God bless her!

Our deepest condolences.

What a wonderful lady! She was an inspiration to all of Lenore and Mike´s friends. Rest in peace, dear lady.

Elvira was my mentor working with her at Dr. Woodcock's office. She took me under her wing and taught me the way to be a good medical secretary and run an office. Thank you, Elvira, and rest in peace with Nick. Paula DiNatale-Fus
