Not sure what to say?

I am fortunate to have known Owen, who was, for a time, my father in law. I think of him often, and probably always will.

I worked with Dr. Reese for over 20 years at Bay Medical Center. He was a caring and loving Doctor who All his patients adored and respected. He taught all of us doctors alot about patient care and dedication to leadership of the hospital. I often can remember his Mantra: "Patients need to know the Truth to Get Well, we just aid in their Journey" . He was an incredible educated person who could talk about how to make blueberry pie and Astrophysics of the Universe in the same sentence! ...

Dr. Reese was a great person. He kept my mother alive for many years and was always there for her. My family will always owe him a debt that we can never repay.

He was an amazing man. He was my dads doctor and although he said he didnt make house calls, he would check in on my dad from time to time. Dad was really sick and needed surgery but Dad was refusing. Dr. Reese told him to call Wilsons (funeral home) because without the surgery he would need them within the week. He has the surgery. RIP Dr. Reese. Pray wing for his family and the lives he touched.

Dr. Reese was my Dr for over 30 years. He was a fine man and a great Doctor. His candid bedside manner always made him so special. He was a very caring and great doctor. He always had a smile on his face. My prayers go out to all his family.
