Glen Gee, In loving memory of our friend and colleague. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to our industry and the patients we serve. Your CareFusion Family.

In honor of my parents Ken and Brenda who continue to inspire me to be more. In honor of my children Trey and Keagan who brighten every day. To my wife Stephanie Walsh who’s unrelenting love makes me want to be a better RT, father, friend and husband. To my mentors Martha Crawley, Gay Olsen, Patricia Ann Doorley, and Cam McLaughlin who supported and loved a young, immature and eager RT.

Bill was a devoted father, co-worker, and friend. He gave 41 years of his life to the profession he was so proud of. Treating patients was his passion. Giving back is who he was. We lost a great respiratory therapist but he’ll always live in the halls of our hospital and in our hearts.

A Hero Amongst Us: Let us in this world be mindful of those who care for us even when they have families of their own who they might not ever see again. RRT’s worldwide sacrifice as they come literally face to face breath to breath with deadly virus’s knowing they may be infected. We love that my wife our mother loved being a life savior and giver; it is the meaning of her name Maisha(Life).

Isabelle Odette Papadimitriou was a compassionate spirit whose drive was caring for others. The mental focus and commitment needed for her job as a respiratory therapist were admirable. But it was her infectious smile, joyful spirit, and strong will that made her a ray of light wherever she went. She was a giant, and powerful in her kindness. Isabelle was a true hero. May she rest in peace.

In honor of my family, Frank R. Salvatore Jr. RRT, MBA, FAARC. Thanks for the honor of serving.
