David and Gay,
I was very sorry to hear of Dr. Askins' passing. He was a joy and pleasure to work with in the days of doing the pacemaker clinics in Marion. It was a priviledge to have known him. May the Good Lord comfort you, as only He can.

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.
