OBITUARY: Harriet Tresemer, c1910-2004

A memorial mass for Harriet Tresemer was held March 23, 2004 at Holy Family Cathedral in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Burial was at Memorial Park in Tulsa. Harriet died March 14, 2004 in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma.

Harriet Tresemer was the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Albert Tresemer of Osage, Iowa. She was the youngest of 10 children and graduated from Osage High School in 1928. She then began and completed her nurse's training at Cook County Hospital. Harriet returned to Osage in the late 1930's to care for her mother Hermiena after she had broken her hip.

In 1941 she left for Tulsa, Oklahoma. Her sister Mrs. Don Mason was already settled in this rather new oil town. In the early 1940's she joined the navy's nursing cadets and was stationed in Honolulu till the end of the war. She then returned to Tulsa, worked for a pediatrician and soon joined the staff at St. John's Medical Center where she became the head of the premature nursery, a position she held until her retirement in 1970's.

She became something of an icon at St. John's. She had a staff of a hundred people who worked with her taking care of the tiniest of babies. She always told people she was in the baby business when she was asked what she did.

Preceding Harriet in death were her parents and all nine of her siblings.

Her survivors include 12 nieces and nephews and many grand-nieces and nephews.
