John and familY;
I am so very sorry for your loss. Aileen was one of my favorites to take care of when she would be on the Oncology floor. She always had a smile and a pleasant hello. She will be missed. I am grateful that she was a part of my life, even though it was under the circumstances of her illness. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
