On May 12, nursing faculty, staff and administration congratulated Connie Costello, associate professor of nursing, on her 10 years of service with the college as well as her retirement. Connie is looking forward to being present for more special memories with her grandchildren. She has been instrumental in the education of hundreds of nursing students in her time in the ADN program. Prior to joining LLCC, she had a career in nursing at bedside, seeing to the care of thousands of patients. Connie will be greatly missed by her students and colleagues!
