Dr. Edgar Meyer

I came to Wenatchee in 1978 as a doctor in the Emergency Department, and met Ed when one of his patients would wind up in the hospital. As usual, he was always nice to the ER docs and staff. We also met several times at the Unitarian Church when they were having meetings about health care and he and I could speak from our different perspectives. It was never an argument, just a description of the system as we saw it.

So enjoyed reading your memorial Anne of your father. Doc Meyer was the Cronrath family physician for 4 generations in Cashmere. I was a Registered Nurse and chose him for my OB because of his knowledge and caring. He loved when i would bring my 2 little hellion boys for an office visit skating up and down his shiny hallway floor. With that twinkle in his eyes he once shared what a tough decision he made between being a pediatrician or family practice. There are some souls that will be...

To this day I perform an exercise Dr Meyer showed me that would help stretch my back before getting out of bed. He was there during my first pregnancy and I am grateful for that. I always knew he was a special doctor, basically a legend in his time.

Growing up in Cashmere, I was fortunate to be a patient of Dr. Meyer from an infant. I remember Dr. Meyer coming to our house or meeting us in the office in the middle of the night on multiple occasions growing up when I was very sick. He was a wonderful, knowledgeable man and we were so fortunate to have him in our community. Thank you, Dr. Meyer, for your care for all of those years.

Dr Meyer/Ed was an amazing man. He delivered both my children over 40 years ago, was a neighbor and inspiration to all who knew him. He will be missed.

Dear Ed's family, we are so very sorry for your dad's loss. He was a true gentleman, lovely person, a gem (as was your mom). Ed joined our U.S. Forest Service volunteer bird monitoring group at Fish Lake and Lake Wenatchee. We needed volunteers to help gather data on the species of birds tied to various riparian habitats. We remember celebrating his 80th birthday on one of our survey dates, on Fish Lake pontoon boats, he said it was the right place to be. He was keen and kind, had a wonderful...

Very well said, Anne! Your Dad (and Mom) were the best. Aside from the medical perspective, I was a Cashmere Rotarian for 28 years. It was always a treat to be able to visit with Ed during our lunches.
