Marianne Ruth (Stang) Tullos

Marianne Ruth Tullos, 78, of Saint Johns, Florida passed away Tuesday, June 18, 2019 at The Legacy at Saint Johns following a lengthy illness.

Marianne was born October 27, 1940 and was a graduate of St. Joseph Elementary School and Monroeville High School.  She received her nursing degree from St. Vincent's Hospital Nursing School in Toledo, Ohio.  Early in her nursing career, Marianne served her country as a nurse in the U.S. Air Force, and she was also a member of the medical recovery team for a Gemini space launch in Cape Canaveral, Florida. For many years prior to her retirement, she was employed as a surgical nurse in the middle Tennessee area. She enjoyed sewing, landscaping, cats and sharing her opinion.
