Simone was a wonderful person and nurse. I value the times we worked together and how she cared and advocated for me when it was my time to be a patient. She definitely has a special space in my mind and heart

Hi Donna, my deepest sympathies. I cared for Simone at Karmanos during her final stay.
We discovered through our chats that we in fact had worked together at CVNH in Woodslee all those years ago.
It was an honour to care for her.
I hope you and your family are well.

I sat and contemplated for over an hour what I would write about Simone and poured through my vast memories of her. They were too numerous and there isn't enough space here. When I started at Harper I was transferring from another hospital and she made my transition an amazing experience and my fears were gone. She was a much loved friend and colleague. When I retired, we both cried and kept in touch through the years. We always ended our e-mails with I miss you. You will be sorely missed by everyone who encountered you. Prayers to her family. RIP dear friend.

Simone was one of the sweetest people you’d ever meet, working along side her in the ER was and amazing experience. She was always patient, loving and kind to everyone. We had moments where we laughed and cried about life and many of the patients we took care of, she always gave 110% no matter what. You will forever be missed, always in my heart and mind. RIH love you always

I met Simone in 1981 when we were new grads just starting our careers.Simone was truly a gifted and talented nurse always going the extra mile and giving 100%.After mastering being a floor nurse Simone transferred to the ER.Simone finished her career in the Emergency Room as a teacher and leader who was respected by all.So what can I say about Simone. I can say she loved her God,her family and her patients. I can say she was funny yet serious. I can say she was humble and generous to all. I can say she was “THE REAL DEAL” I can say I’ll miss my dear friend.. may Gods peace be with her.

Simone was such a beautiful person inside and out. I was one of her baby nurse that she trained at Harper Hospital ED. They couldn’t have picked a better preceptor for me. She was like my aunt/ mom at work. I will never forget her kindness and all the wisdom she has taught me. When I left Harper, Simone was one of the people that I really had a hard time saying good bye to. Thank You Simone for everything you have done for me.

I am really sorry for your loss. I worked with Simone for many years at Harper Hospital. I started off as a brand new Physician Assistant and she was a seasoned nurse. She was kind and taught me so much. She will be missed.
