In memory of Dr. Jan Hansen Garrett of Tyler.
This is a ceremonial resolution (SR 154), not a legislative bill with policy changes. It honors Dr. Jan Hansen Garrett, a Tyler physician who died in July 2024 at age 83. The resolution commemorates his medical career - including founding the Bone and Joint Clinic and Azalea Orthopedics - his family life, and his community service. It extends sympathy to his wife, children, grandchildren, and colleagues, and directs the Texas Senate to adjourn in his memory. No new laws or policies are created.
