Read MoreI was privileged to work with Tannis for many years. She was a true professional and would have been my choice of an OR nurse for my family anytime.
She also had a great sense of humor and very energetic!
May she find peace with our Lord at last

I really enjoyed working with you, Tannis, in Orthopedics at UH way back in the late 70s. You were a great teacher....no nonsense and fun! I know you are happy in heaven with Our Lord!!
Bless you, her family.

I started my career at UH with Tannis as my circulating nurse quite often... she was such a dedicated, hardworking nurse! She was so quietly funny, too. She had really great life stories to share when we had the time! I will never forget her or the impact she has left upon me as an OR nurse. Thinking of her family and friends!
