Go for it Deb! You'll be great!
There are precedents for RNs as coroners around the country. They bring not only the clinical knowledge necessary for this role, but the gift of compassion for the families affected by tragedies and loss. I only wish you were running in Nassau County, NY! Thank you for your excellent representation of our profession, and please know that there are a lot of nurses out there pulling for you in this race!
Debby, you are PERFECT for this job! I'm behind you all the way!
Hope
Deborah,
You will do great! LNC's are rooting for you all over the nation. Nurses excel at every professional task we put our minds, hearts and hands into. County Coroner will be no exception!
Debby you can do it! I am so proud of you!
Claire Hull is my cousin and she sent us all an email asking prayers for your campaign, so count on me! I was stationed in our St. Louis convent for 9 years and have many beautiful memories of Missouri.
May God bless you abundantly.
Sr. Raymond Marie Gerard
Debby will bring both compassion and her expertise as a forensic nurse to the citizens of the county. She has the training to insure that the office of the coroner is run professionally and to see that the standards of care are maintained. A vote for Debby is a vote for excellence!
