The lifelong Chalmette resident who graduated from Andrew Jackson High School

Katrina. 
The dedicated nurse who had compassion and empathy worked at Chalmette Medical

the surgical services directed. 
She was diagnosed with breast cancer in October of 2008 but worked full time 
until a month before her death. 
She was actively participating in charity work for breast cancer awareness and 
was dedicated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation for the Cure, to which donations 
would be appreciated.

A memorial service will be Dec. 2 at 3:30 p.m., immediately followed by a life 
celebration gathering until 8 p.m., at The Lake House, 2025 Lakeshore Drive, 
Mandeville.
