Im so sorry to hear about Dee. I met her my first week at nursing school, she lived across the hall form me in the nursing dorm. Dee was always kind and helpful to me. I have many fond memories of her and so much respect for her as a nurse. One of my memories is when she pierced my ears in her dorm room!
May God comfort you today and in the days ahead.
