Page and I worked at Adult Day Health Care of Mad River and had a good time there. She being a little short and I taller she would come to my office at times and say " I need a tall person to get something off a shelf". We shared a lot of laughs and spent good times together on the weekends. I miss her and her sense of humor. My thoughts are with her son Christian and her husband Dave.

She was Lovely

I am sorry to find out the Page has passed. It has been a long time since Page & I have worked together. When I began working at MRCH, I worked with Page & we shared the PM House Supervisor for the hospital. I took Page home to Fieldbrook a few times. We shared ideas for kids, families and nursing. When I moved to ER, I lost track of Page, & didn't realize she was just in another dept., too. She was a delight to know and spend time together. It is good to have family that can be there for each other. God bless you in this time of family togetherness,
