We are always so thankful for time spent with our Union Commonwealth University Edna Jenkins Mann School of Nursing founder, Mrs. Edna Jenkins Mann, and her husband Gerald (Gerry), along with their daughter, Terri Mann, member of the Union Commonwealth University Board of Trustees, and their beloved pup, Queenie.

Our visit was filled with laughter and heartfelt stories. Mrs. Edna's passion for nursing, our students, and the Union Commonwealth University community continues to shine and inspire all of us.
