Tim and family so sorr about Janice. Saw her at Dollar Store about 2 yrs ago and we had a nice visit. I really enjoyed working with her at Whte River.was a good and caring nurse. Was one of those that was taught hands on nursing. Will pray for you during these trying times. Sister Doris died in 2015. Had a lot of pneumonia the last few yrs. she always enjoyed working with you. Remember the apple plaques with the grandchildren’s names on it Her daughter has the plaque now.
