She held our candy striper orientation in 1978. I can still see her walking the hallways of CAGH; always had a smile!

I absolutely loved working with Twila at CAGH. Twila was always pleasant and informative, gently suggesting ways one could improve themselves. I think of her often. She will be missed and thought of fondly by all who knew her. My sincere sympathy to her family.
