She worked in OB as an LPN and then as an RN she was in Outpatient surgery, Recovery Room, ICU, CCU, ER, 3West and Medical/Surgical wings.  She loved Aliquippa Hospital and was a dedicated nurse. This was evident during the early months of her residence at West Hills Health and Rehabilitation, Moon Township. The staff was so loving and caring, that they had Mom "help them" chart info, and make rounds checking on the other residents.  Special Thanks to her caregivers, Kama, Kim R., Maria, Tess, Gaye, Natalie, Cindy,  Michelle and Kathy.  Thanks also to Annova Hospice nurse Sam and aide Vivian for their care during Mom's final months.
