I was thinking of Drs. T III and T IV tonight and decided to look them up. So sorry to hear of Dr. T III's passing, even if it was a while ago. I was a baby RN when I started working at Methodist Central straight out of nursing school. I did enjoy working with them both, and fondly tell the story of how Dr T (III) continued to work for so long, but watching him fight for hours to save a young girl's uterus. He served many. I'm glad I was lucky enough to work with him.
