My family and I are very saddened to hear of Dr. Klink’s passing. He was such a kind, compassionate man. I’ll always remember his smile, wit, and reassuring care. After moving to the Eastern Shore, I didn’t hesitate to travel to Gloucester for appointments. Thank you, and God bless you, Dr. Klink.

Robert and I grew up together in South Roanoke, Va.

Robert and I have been friends since the third grade, and graduated from Patrick Henry High School together. He was an effective student body president and a wonderful man in all respects. Such a sad day, but celebrating a meaningful life. For June and the family, please accept our sincere sympathy for your loss.

Dr Klink was my Dr for many years, I struggled with infertility so I spent a lot of time with him between testing, procedures, and surgery. Fortunately, that time paid off and resulted in 2 healthy pregnancies. He had the best bedside manner and always made me feel at ease. He will be missed! My condolences to his family.
