Not sure what to say?

Dr Fuesler was our Dr for many many years. He delivered both of our kids in the 70;s Brians family was among his first patience in 1953. Brian met first met Dr Fuesler for his 6 month check up... or close to it. All of his patience were filled in a recipe box. He was not only an amazing Dr but a true friend. We loved his book he wrote on the War and I loved his letters to the editor. He will be greatly missed

Dr Fuesler was my doctor as a child and adult. He delivered my son and was my second husband's doctor also. We all loved him as he wasn't just a good and wonderful doctor he was a trusted part of our health care.

He will be remembered as our familys General Practitioner, friend, his caring character and all he did for our community d

Our family doctor for many many years. I remember the first penicillin shot I ever got made me feel queasy. He became very concerned. A respected, caring,
old fashioned physician. He was the one who came to my aid at any hour to give me stitches when I did dumb things.

Margaret, Juliana, Tom, and Margretchen-my thoughts are with all of you. Your dad and my dad were very close with common roots-Nebraska, WW II, horses, cattle, dogs, etc. And your mom and my mom were also very close. And growing up in Longview-the constant confusion of names-Dr. Fuesler or Dr. Feusner? Your dad was a well respected doctor and my dad had a lot of respect for your dad. Lots of memories for me between the two!!!

Dr. Fuesler delivered me in 1957 and delivered both of my children my son in 1980, who by the way after a very difficult delivery, “peed all over me” said the infamously funny bedside manner of our favorite doctor! My daughter in 1981, with again another great line. “Those Henderson boys took all the scrubs and my pants barely cover my calves!” Needless to say when he retired I was incredibly sad and would miss his common sense medical advice and the ability to make me laugh even in...

Dr. Fuesler was my Dr. from the time I was about 18 months old until he retired. He was a man who cared deeply for his patients. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Our prayers and thoughts to the family of a wonderful and caring doctor. We have loved all the stories the Daily News has printed about Dr. Fuesler thru the years. All our children and grandchildren were delivered by him. When I told our daughter about Doctor Fuesler passing she said,  So sad I thought he would live forever. We thank God for all the great care we received from a very loving Doctor. Lloyd, Myrna and family
