2 DECEMBER 2012/ I am so sorry to have just learned of Nola's passing. She was a wonderful friend from nursing school in the early 1960s. She was always in my thoughts and prayers. To Kory and Todd I share your loss.

Nola was a kind and generous nurse who touched the lives of many at Armold Gregory Hospital. I did not know her personnally but remember her always looking so crisp and professional. My condolences to all of the family.

I am so sorry to hear about Nola's passing. She was a wonderful friend. She was so good to my mom and dad while mom was in Orchard Mannor until she passed away last August. I have known Nola since we were in a TOPA play together in the mid sixty's. My Mother-In-Law , Catherine Thomas, always thought she was the greatest when she worked with her at Medina Hospital. Nola and I became very good friends while mom was at Orchard Manor over the past 71/2 years. I have a video picture of her nails that I took the Monday before she passed. She wanted everyone to see the nails as they were decorated like leopard spots. I will miss my visits with her at the home. May God Bless her and her family.
