The book mentioned in the previous post has been inscribed and placed in the Smith Phayer Hospice House. The inscription reads:
“I was honored to be the primary hospice nurse for Dr. Doris Cox. An avid reader, always with 2 or 3 books going, Dr. Cox was the first female Ph.D. in library science here in the United States. She is entirely responsible for getting me “back to the library” after a long respite! I first borrowed this book from her, because she was enjoying it so much. Later, Dr. Cox wanted me to have it. This book belongs here at Smith Phayer Hospice House—donated in her honor and memory: A very dear friend, a wonderful role model, and a fellow reader.” ~ Barbara Tousey, RN, CHPN

Wow. I knew Doris was awesome but it seems she was in reality even greater in reputation than I gave her credit for... A lady never tells I guess.
