I used to work for Dr Ravins in 1982 He was a really beautiful person and one of my favorite bosses ever. He was a dedicated family man and the love he had for them including his beautiful wife was inspiring that still touches me to this day. He also had a great subtle sense of humor reminiscent of Jack Benny that i just rolled in laughter!
Please accept my (belated) but most heartfelt deepest sympathy ❤

Dear Mrs. Ravins and Family,
I wish you peace and comfort in your time of loss. Dr. Ravins was a true visionary, and will be missed by so many. He did deeply love his family, and spoke of you often. Personally, Dr. Ravins was the only one who could resolve a severe TMJ problem of mine, and for that, I am eternally grateful. God Bless you, Anne Czarkowski

Dear Mrs. Ravins,
I will never forget all that I have learned from Dr. Ravins. He took so much time and effort to share his knowledge with myself and others. He was unique and so wise. Our prayers go out to you and your family. I thank God for allowing me to have met him and become my friend and teacher. May the Lord be with you and give you all the strength that you need.

Dear Gail, Elisa and Steven -
My heart goes out to all of you as Harold was one of the most important men in my life as well and I understand the loss that is created by his passing. May it bring us all closer together, make us stronger individually and collectively and in his memory and honor help us all to achieve the goals that he would have wanted us to fulfill.
My love and respect to you all.

Dear Gail, Steven and Elisa - we were so sorry to hear about your loss. It's hard to believe that our friendship has spanned 50 years and that so much has happened in that time. I will always have my memories of your family. Wishing you much love.
