HANNAH
Nurse Hannah is off on her 2-year leave to Italy! We had a fun farewell get together and Molly shared an amazing poem.
Ode to Hannah
In the halls of our school, with a skip and a cheer,
Lives a tech savvy nurse Hannah, it’s you we hold dear.
With curly blonde hair and a heart full of zest,
She makes nurses laugh when we’re half dead and need rest.
With two wild boys who keep her on the run,
She juggles her passions and makes life oh so fun.
From yoga to biking, she conquers the trails,
At Orange Theory, she never fails!
From COPA with Cynthia, they discussed Bend’s dating scene,
To conquering mountains- she’s a backpacking queen.
Now she’s off to Sicily on a life changing quest,
As a DOD nurse she’ll best all the rest!
We’ll miss her quick wit, her compassionate care,
The way she lights up any room with her flair.
So here’s to dear Hannah, as you spread your wings wide,
Know we’ll always cherish you, our Bend-La Pine pride!
So go on, fierce warrior, make Sicily shine,
We’ll hold onto your spirit, forever divine.
With laughter and love, we send you away,
In our hearts, Nurse Hannah, you’ll always stay!
