March 19, 2023 34th annual baton death March memorial. First I want to give a shout out to all the individuals who walked the race. They walked with or with out a weight back pack. It was the first time I volunteered to help with a group of wonderful nmsu student nurses. Each of them brought a wonderful contribution to helping the walkers take part in the event.

Yesterday Pi Omega Chapter lost a terrific member. Dr. Anita Reinhardt, she was a pillar in our chapter and held many leadership roles here. She will be missed. Please prayer for her family.
