Harriet was the glue that kept BSA in order & she & Lou will always be forever in my heart

I worked with Harriet at both Canyon Ranch Health & Healing Department and as a Nurse at BMC. She was a pillar of strength and dignity in both settings. I will miss her relaxed demeanor and her astute mind in both settings. She could handle anything thrown at her and was a team player. I will miss her dearly and cherish the memories. May she rest in her eternal salvation. Most Sincerely, Elana Delusky Maruk
