Not sure what to say?

I was a student nurse and RN at St Anne's Hospital. I remember Dr. Banich fondly for his kindness and generosity. He was a wonderful surgeon. My mother was also a nurse at St Anne's Hospital and spoke very highly of Him. God Bless you DR Banich and my condolences to your family.

Frank was one of my first friends in college and we stayed friends through medical school....I remember eating dinner at his house and spending time with his family.. We were lab partners in many classes and he was a talented hard working doctor. I regret not having spent more time with him as we aged...he was a good friend and a fine doctor.

So sorry for your loss. May the God of all comfort-comfort you during this time of pain and sorrow. 2 Cor. 1:3-5

My deepest condolences

I was so sad to hear of Dr Banich passing. I worked with him when I was an RN at St Anne's and he was the finest physician, diagnostician and all round wonderful man. He leaves a legacy like none other and I was privileged to know him.
God Bless Gloria and the entire family. You are in my prayers as you grieve his loss.

To the family of Dr. Banich.
What a wonderful man he was. Had it not been for him, I wouldn't have gotten a job in the O.R. I was pregnant working on 3N and they wouldn't hire anyone pregnant in the O.R. Well, Dr. Banich made it happen. I spent 24 years circulating in his room. What a great surgeon and wonderful gentleman he was. Always talking about his children. Cant believe how much he loved you all. He even took my husbands appendix out on Valentines Day 1991. He gave me grief for...
