Daughty’s career as a Cardiology Technologist at St. Boniface Hospital spanned 40 years of service. Her responsibility included a leadership role as EKG Charge Technologist. She invested time as a director on the Manitoba Association of Cardiology Technologists board. Daughty retired in 2010 but remained as a casual so that she could continue to care for patients here at St. Boniface Hospital. She touched many lives during her time here with her welcoming smile, sense of humour and professional dedication. Daughty will be missed by all who knew her.
