Working alongside Mrs. Derico at Grady Hospital was always fun and I could rest assured that a job would be well done because she took pride in her job taking care of patients. She was always caring, thoughful and kind to the staff, patients and their families. Always a beautiful smile and servant's heart she will truly be missed.
