I met Allison, in 2017, when our campuses merged into one Coastal family. Allison always had a kind word in her mouth and a smile on her face. This was every encounter I had with her, be it at coastal faculty meetings, faculty duty days or if I was on campus in Bay Minette for something not related to nursing. If our paths accidentally crossed. This is what I saw in Allison(a beautiful smile on her face, and a kind word spoken). She was such as joy to work with.
