Visiting nurses were kind and caring

I was fortunate enough to get a flu shot from the Visiting Nurse Services of the Northwest at the Everett Events Center. I wanted to commend and applaud the excellent organization of the service. Also, the friendly, kind and caring help of each of the personnel was much appreciated. Thank you.
