Jaime Lozano dedicated his life to helping others. He worked as a respiratory therapist for over 30 years. He mentored and helped prepare the next generation of therapist many who will continue to pass on his legacy for years to come. He was a wealth of love and knowledge and he is greatly missed.

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.
