Not sure what to say?

I spent many summer days playing baseball with Edgar in Collegeville, PA . He was the leader of our gang and a great kid from a wonderful family. Congolances to his family.

Dr. Nace was an outstanding physician in the art and science of medicine. I worked with him on naltrexone, a treatment for alcoholism. His demeanor and professionalism was supreme. His caring for patients was unrivaled. He undoubtably saved many lives. He cared. He was dedicated to his patients and profession. I was honored to have known him. May you rest in peace sir. My condolences to his family.

I just found out Dr. Nace died, and I am saddened by the news. He had a plethora of information that he provided to me and the staff. I salute Dr. Nace on this day because he cared for people, had so much compassion, and listened intently. God Bless You!

Dr.Nace was a wonderful teacher and mentor. I learned so much from him. My own patients, and those of countless other physicians, continue to benefit from his wisdom.

What an amazing person! I´m praying for you as you navigate this difficult time. I pray for Godspeed through the grief. Keep looking upwards!

Dr. Nace saved me more than once. RIP sir you served humanity well.

Words are welcome but father requested that not much be spent on flowers; "give money instead to a charity." Those he donated heavily to included Dallas Women's Forum (Ross Ave) and Ourcalling.org. Other noteworthy suggestions - Rogers (http://rogerswildlife.org/how-to-help.php#donations) and the Heard Museum (https://www.heardmuseum.org/donate/). My father spent many hours at the Heard walking and watching birds.

Sending our sincerest condolences... Your father made tremendous contributions to help others with addiction and alcoholism that I know has helped many people in the past, present and future. All while providing unwavering love and support to his wife. May he rest in peace.

Thanks for such an outstanding contribution to the world. you will forever be missed. REST IN HEAVEN! (Step Nation)
