Sympathy
You will be greatly missed by family, friends, and loved ones. May you Rest In Peace.
A cherished friend and colleague
My deepest sympathies for your loss. Valerie meant a lot to me personally and was a trusted colleague professionally. She was tireless in her work and extremely dedicated. She did an amazing job as our first VAD coordinator and I was sorry when she left that position. We counted on her for so much and she deserves a lot credit for creating the program we have today. Valerie set the tone by caring not just for the patient but also for the patient’s family. This helped us build a true community. I am eternally grateful for her contributions. Her commitment to her family was evident and that mother bear instinct carried over to her work as a nurse. She was the strongest advocates for her patients. Valerie will be missed dearly. Warmest regards, Greg Egnaczyk
Val
Val will always have a special place for me as a colleague. She was so selfless and dedicated. She built our VAD program in the beginning, doing everything from soup to nuts. I think of her often and that won’t ever change. I wish nothing but the best for her family.
RIH
Rest in heaven Val. May God continue to bless your family.
Goodbye my lovely friend…
I will always cherish the time we spent together, our conversations, our friendship and your smile…….you will be dearly missed, I love you. David Ohnefloss
