He took such good care of my husband, Franz. In addition to his outstanding skills, he was compassionate and empathetic, taking into consideration the "whole person." He was witty and charming, and was a true healer, as well as a wonderful man. He helped countless people, improving their lives, and made the world a better place. His legacy will continue. May God grant peace to his family and friends in their grief, and may the knowledge that he touched so many lives ease their pain. Heaven welcomed one of the best.

My sincere condolences to all of the family. What a great man and what a lasting legacy through all of the lives he touched. Sixteen years after he hired me fresh out of school to be his PA, I am still working in orthopedics and am still grateful for the gifts he gave me regarding how to provide compassionate patient care. You have my love and prayers.
