May she rest in peace. The last couple of years were very hard for her. God bless her family. Nate and Stephanie I will always remember your dedication to caring for her.
BJ will always be so special in my heart. She helped me navigate my way through my first “real” job at the VA and then became a friend for life, even when I moved away for 20 years. The world is a little less friendly without her In it. But she is able-bodied again and sharing her smile with all the other angels
