I am so sorry to hear of your loss. You should know that I didn't know her well, but she managed to be a wonderful model of a nurse. She was encouraging, involved, and so kind. I was planning to be a nurse. She was the perfect example. Thank you, Charlene. I pray for courage and strength for all of you, to get you through her passing. She will be missed.
