Dedication to “Our Village”<br />
This day would not be possible without the love, support and<br />
understanding we have received from our family and friends<br />
throughout this journey. This day would not hold significance<br />
if the ones we loved most could not be here to share this<br />
wonderful accomplishment with us.<br />
The nursing class <strong>of</strong> <strong>2011</strong> would like to sincerely thank our<br />
families who have loved, encouraged and grown with us<br />
throughout this challenging experience. Also, we would like<br />
to express sincere gratitude to all <strong>of</strong> our pr<strong>of</strong>essors who have<br />
empowered us with their dedication to nursing education.<br />

A Nurse’s Prayer<br />
Let me dedicate my life today,<br />
in the care <strong>of</strong> those who come my way.<br />
Let me touch each one with healing hand,<br />
and the gentle art for which I stand.<br />
And then tonight when day is done,<br />
let me rest in peace,<br />
if I’ve helped just one.<br />
