I will always be thankful to you for showing me the robes as I started my nursing career at Ft Sam (BAMC). So knowledgeable and caring for the soldiers and there families. It was my pleasure to be a member of San Antonio Black Nursing Association serving the community and with you. My deepest sympathy and condolences to family and friends. RIP Angel
I am extremely heartbroken at the passing of my dear friend since childhood–Mrs. Pearlean Bland. She was a beautiful, loving, kind, family-oriented Christian woman. She loved her family, church, professional organizations and life-long friends dearly. It is with great sadness that I bid Perlean farewell.
Lovingly and Humbly Submitted,
Minnie Lee (Cabness) Dilworth
