A few words from Dr. Candace Pierce, Lead Nurse Planner, Elite Healthcare:
"In fond memory of a cherished colleague and friend who left a lasting impact on us. He wasn't someone we worked with daily, but when we collaborated, it was always such a great experience. His dedication to thorough research and ensuring the information he shared was accurate and current was something to admire. He had this innate love for diving deep into subjects, always hungry for knowledge. His expertise was evident, and we all knew he was the go-to person in his field. Even though our interactions were not daily, his imprint on us remains profound. Rest peacefully, dear friend."
