Not sure what to say?

He was my Dr. when I was a young teen. He and his wife Sally had such a kind way about them. He always made you feel safe and taken care of. Always had a joke for you . He truly was the wisest Dr I ever had. He will be missed

Dr. Romig was out family doctor, and he was right-on in many instances where life and health mattered. We are grateful to have been his and Sally's friends as well. My deepest condolences to the whole family.

To the Romig sons: I´m so sorry for your loss. I hope time will bring you peace and restoration. Your dad did a lot of good, and you can be proud of him. I was unaware Kate was gone. She was delightful, please accept late condolences on her passing. You might not remember me but I remember you all. Time flies while we search for the fly swatter (? - in honor of your dad -?).

Oh Don, You were the best Dr. I have ever had. I have missed you through out the years and often wondered what fishing hole you fished at. My life was saved by you, yet don't mention this to too many people for they will ban you. I thank you for your humor, smile and caring. I will always remember you humorist sensitivity. You will greatly be missed. I hear the fishing is great where you're headed. Happy trails. C.R.

Don was a truly wonderful, old-school physician. From the moment you walked into his office, he had an intuitive ability to read his patients-a skill matched only by his vast wealth of knowledge and experience. He practiced medicine with a personal touch that is rare to find today. He will be deeply missed, and my heart goes out to his family and friends. May he rest in peace.

Don was a decades long friend and colleague I will miss him and his PUNDERFULHUMOR.

Don was one of the good things that happened in my life.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
