Not sure what to say?

Dr Wetzel cared for my 9 children. He was very kind and patient with me! I Have been ill for 7 years and just found out about him passing. I am truly sad,

I remember going to see Dr. Wetzel as I was growing up. My mother tells me often how he helped save my younger brother's life. When I was married and had children of my own, they went to Dr. Wetzel until the time he retired. They always enjoyed going into his office and watching the chipmunks in their cage. He was a great doctor, and a good man. He will be missed.

I am told that Dr. Wetzel saved my life as a baby. I cannot express my gratitude for this. I will always be grateful for the help he gave and for the blessed hands of a great physician.

Dear family,
I am grateful for his great care of my children while they were growing up. He was an invaluable resource for this mother with her first child as well as second and third. He was always understanding and after I learned how to phrase the questions, I learned very much.
I am certain he had a great following of many, many parents.

Dear Wetzel Family,
Dr. Wetzel was my pediatrician when I was small. I remember my mother telling stories of his advise and instruction to her. When I had my first baby I took him to Dr. Wetzel because of the wonderful care that my brother and I received from him. I had 2 more children and, of course, I took them to him also. He was the most loving and caring Dr. around. Day or middle of the night, I could always count on him to be there, to be helpful and be a comfort. He not only...

Wetzel Family,
I was saddened to hear of the passing of Dr. Dick. He, lovingly, took care of me and my siblings. I knew that when I married and started my family, he would be my children's doctor and he was. My children loved him. He always made me feel like a good mom. He would always pat my back, as I would leave his office. He always had a smile on his face. I will cherish my memories of him. With love, Linda

Dear Betty and family,
