Outstanding nurse and former Sister at the Percy Junior Hospital in Spalding and a lecturer at the Knox Community College, Sister Pearl Russeli, passed away today. She was 93 years old. She was awarded a Badge of Honour for Meritorious Service in the field of public health.
Sister Russell was one of those nurses who were trained in the United Kingdom, and she had the distinction of visiting Queen Elizabeth at Buckingham Palace.
