Mary Jane Katz A Mentor Remembered,

 

  "Mary Jane Katz ז"ל 

 

May her memory be for a blessing.

Our association goes back to 1984 when she was the President  of the Saskatchewan Psychiatric Nursing Association.  We teamed up to worked on a proposal for Private Psychiatric Respite Care for families in need of this kind of service.  

In the 2000's we were engaged in three of the Beth Jacob Anniversary Celebrations.

Sometimes you meet someone who truly shifts your perspective. Having Mary Jane as a mentor was a game changer for me. Her kindness and wisdom stick with me every day.
