THE NEBRASKA METHODIST HOSPITAL - OMAHA, NE

Submitted by:David Christie, M.D., Radiologist, University of Washington/ Harborview Medical Center
Phone # is my home. Please call or email as above.

I am searching for a nurse that worked at the old

Methodist Hospital on Cummings about 1945-1947.

Nurse Mary Jo Evans went to Vietnam as an Army Nurse.

I'm trying to learn if any of the nurses who might have

known her,knows her fate.

While going to medical school, I lived & worked in Methodist Hospital, & continued there as an intern.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
