May he rest in peace! I was a patient of his and he always called me Ms America for my last name and no relation to Trisha Yearwood. I will always remember him and a honest surgeon. Thank you Dr. Eller

I worked for Dr Eller as a Dental Assistant. He was a brilliant and talented surgeon. He was generous and at times funny. He was a great "boss". I'm very saddened to hear this news. Rest In Peace Doctor.

He was a wonderful man, very intelligent, and always caring about other people's needs. If I could describe him with one word, it would be KINDNESS.
