I don´t know if the family still reads this but Dr Drucker was my God father. My dad and him went to high school together. My dad became an anesthesiologist in NYC at HSS. I have many fond memories of my God parents! Love to the Drucker family

I was one of his patients in the 1950's. I remember running away from needles. I was in his office one day to get a shot and he had been trying to catch me and I would slither away. Finally, I crawled under the exam table and my parents moved to pull me out and he said, "No. I'll give her the injection under there." He got down on his hands and knees and crawled in after me. And I got the shot. Somehow after that, I was never afraid anymore. When I underwent allergy shots, I would meet him in the hallway as he was on his way to his next patient. He would say which arm and I would roll up my sleeve and it was done. I have done much overseas traveling (and living in) so-called 3rd world countries. This, of course, involves vaccines. And I still don't fear them. To this day, I am so glad that he was my doctor. I always knew without question that he cared about what happened to me.

Dr. "JJ" was my sister's and my pediatrician while we were growing up in Fresh Meadows in the 60s. He was a great guy. I remember the smell of the wood paneling in his waiting room and his Cornell Med School chairs. Such a gentle, caring man. I know that this comes about eight years after his passing but it is heartfelt, just the same.

My deepest condolences. I was a patient of Dr. drucker. I lived in forest hills all my life and fondly would pass his house on ascan avenue and think of how caring he was.

Dear Susie, Dale, Tootsie and all the Drucker family--I just heard the news today and am so sorry for your loss. I remember your dad so well; he was always so warm and gracious to me--and in later years, we had some great Fordham chats! Please known you are in my thoughts and prayers most especially.

Dr. Drucker was a very busy man during the "baby boom" I remember his cadillac , his doctor bag and his offering kids a choice of injection sites when shots were due "in the hiney or in the arm?" He took care of many now grown children . He was a nice man. Great doctor.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of the Drucker family. What a joy it was to know Dr. John - as our doctor, and as our friend.
