MARY PATRICIA NELSON

Thanks for all the help in school! You will be missed!

My sincere condolences to the Nelson family, Dr. Nelson was a wonderful beautiful person who was very good to our family.

As a nursing student class of 1986 I can only remember how hard Pat worked and her true commitment to the students and the nursing program. She was admired by all and professionaly respected. I was very proud to have her as the director of my program and remember how awesome she was to have achieved her doctorate.May she be remembered for all the good she did in this world and may her soul have divine peace for eternity.

What a loss to the world of nursing and beyond! As a student of Pat's over 40 years ago, I was impressed by her deep intelligence, her excellent teaching, her encouraging manner, and her sense of humor. Family and friends, please be comforted in knowing how much Pat was admired and how many lives she touched.

Pat was my colleague and friend at Roxborough Memorial Hospital.
We had a mutual respect for each other and collaborated on many Nursing issues. Pat was an energetic and vibrant personality. She will be missed.

Pat was a friend and colleague whom I admired. We worked together for years and we had mutual respect for our separate roles. She was a strong advocate for Nursing and a vibrant and energetic personality. She will be missed.

As a graduate of RMH class of 78, I remember her as an advocate of nursing who instilled a desire to continue the education process in nursing. While she pushed us to do our best, she cared about her students both personally and professionally and always had encouragement for her students. Her years in nursing education are a testament to a career she loved. She will be missed.
