Not sure what to say?

Dr. Lockhart was a fine doctor. He was a very kind, caring man. He is what doctors today should strive to be. He will be greatly missed.

Dr. Lockhart was my father's close friend and colleague for many years. He was a guiding force in the community and will be missed by all who knew him. Our condolences to his wife and kids. He will be missed.

Dr. Lockhart was my boss for ten years. He was such a kind caring person. He and his wife, Betty Sue always remembered my three little boys with a gift at Christmas. He will be missed by all those who loved him. Betty Ballard Ritchie

Dr. Lockhart was my doctor when I was a child (I'm now 53). I never minded going to the doctor because of his wonderful personalty. He was truely a wonderful person and the world is a better place because of him.

My heart goes out to the family and friends of Dr. Lockhart. He was my Dr. for many years. His kindness and that "old time" bedside manner helped me through much illness in my young life. I am now 63 years old and I have never forgotten him or all the great things he did for me and my family. He will truely be missed. May God bless the Lockhart family.

Dr. Lockhart epitamized what a true gentleman and healer should be. As one of my doctor's at the Children's Clinic, his smile and caring manner always was a comfort when I was anxious or feeling bad. Though his greatest legacy is his family, the lives he touched as a doctor and as a humanitarian can not be measured.

Other than Dr. White, Dr. Lockhart is the first doctor I remember from my childhood. He treated me during a serious illness during my preschool years. With his medical expertise and wonderful care, I was able to start the first grade on time - - something that had been very much in doubt. At that age, I remember being very frightened. Dr. Lockhart was an expert at calming me - - he had the very best bedside manner. When I learned to spell, I couldn't understand why his name wasn't...

Dr. Dave was one of the first people that Fred and I met at All Saints as he was part of the Search Committee that interviewed, and ultimately hired, Fred as the new rector at All Saints. Dr. Dave made us feel so welcome and shared with our children that he was a "PK" (preacher's kid) of an episcopal minister and understood how that can sometimes feel for a young child. Dr. Dave lived out his deep faith by being the hands and feet of Jesus while helping others who needed to see the love that...

There are no words that can express the love and admiration my family held for this man. I could not have reared four children without his expert help and caring. My heart goes out to his family at this sad time. He will certainly be missed by all that knew him. With love and sympathy, you will be in our thoughts and prayers. The Family of the late Marvin L.
