Hi and God's Blessing on all of you.
Lois and I came to Mesa AZ on November
6,1955. From a large dairy farm in S Plymouth Ny to escale the cold and snow. It's been 56 years now and John's dad was our dentist early on till John came to practice.

We were with John and Sandy his dental hygenist until his practice changed hands.Thanks to John we aere able to find another great dentist in Dr Ernest Johnson and I am still with him after all these years. if Lois were here and Lois made a peaceful journey home to be with her Lord Jesus Christ on November 18,2009 after six year illness but her strength and spirit lives in my heart as John's and Susan's and Dr Wesley and the rest shall live in yours.

I will not be able to be with you tomorrow but my thought s and prayers be with you for I shall never forget the good doctor's and their outstanding care and compassion and Sandy too.

Love in Christ
In memory of Lois M. Adams

Dr. B,
I am thankful we met and worked together. You were one of the most talented doctors I have ever assisted for and I am lucky to be able to say I was your last assistant right up until the day you retired. You are a kind hearted person and a loyal friend. You will be miss by so many. Until we meet again rest in peace.

John is now pain free and living joyfully with the Lord. He was one of the best bosses I ever had and a man with a huge, generous heart. I send my love and hugs to his family who are experiencing such pain right now but know this: we will see him again!

Dr. Biddulph was my father's dentist for years and very well liked by Dad. I know he will be missed very much by his extended family, friends, patients, and colleagues. But it is good to know he is now with his Savior and free of any discomfort. May God provide comfort and peace to all those who are feeling this loss.

Our lives will sorely miss, but Heaven is made a greater goal by John Biddulph leaving for his eternal reward. John became a dear friend, trusted professional and fellow pilgrim in life to me and my family. My life has been so blessed by him. May he rest in peace and Our Lord comfort his immediate and extended family.
