One of the best nurses I ever had the pleasure to work with. I´m going to miss her at KMC and it´s not going to be the same without her. She was always there for anyone that needed her. I´m going to miss her hugs and wonderful smile. She an amazing person and I pray for her family as they get through this difficult time. She will always have a piece of my heart and I´ll never forget sweet sweet Maura.
