Dear Bonnie,
I was so sorry to hear about Fred's passing. I will always remember him as a kind and generous mentor. He taught me so much about life as well as dentistry and showed through example his compassion as well as his love for friends and family. He was always very good to me as a colleague and as an employer. I will never forget what he did for me when I was just starting out. Marta and I would like to offer you our sincere condolences and would like you Jeff and Tobie to know that you are in our prayers.
Sincerely, Steve
