I had the pleasure and honor to have known Cristina even for a short time. I worked in the pre- operative area at Broward Health where she also worked at the Recovery Room. She was very humble, pleasant and easy to get along with. She was very professional, and an efficient, compassionate nurse. She will truly be missed. May our good Lord welcome you in His Kingdom of Heaven.

I worked with Cristina for several years in PACU. She was a kind hearted person and always willing to help others. She will surely be missed. My condolences to her family and friends.

I worked with Christina in the PACU at Broward General Medical Center. As is common with Filipino nurses they are compassionate, show generosity and love to feed people. Christina made wonderful carrot cake.
