My heart broke when I heard the news. The only solace is that Hope, who was an angel on this earth, is now in heaven. I am blessed to have known her while she was at Washington West. She will live on in my heart, always...Nurse Jen

R.I.P. Hope. You were a beautiful young intelligent girl. God decided it was your turn. You will be missed by everyone. Tell grandma and grandpa Randall I said "hi."

Hope and I became very close friends in the hospital. I always requested to be her nurse as we always had a good time. She is the toughest woman I have ever met..So positive during all of the emergencies and she knew how to deal with the doctors that didn't listen to her. Hope loved her chicken salads and coloring! I am going to miss her so much..

Dear Norm and Katie,
I'm so sorry for the loss of your beautiful girl. My thought and prayers are with you. Bernice
