Rest in peace John (aka Jack). To say our unit is devastated is an understatement, you can feel it in the air tonight. It was both a joy and a privilege to care for Jack. He always brightened everyone’s day and never had a negative thing to say. His art is absolutely stunning and it is a big part of what I will miss most about going in his room. I can’t think of a better way to honor him than to have a big ol bowl of applesauce when I get home tonight. ❤
