Read MoreDoc was a God send when you had a few childern who were always need his services as well as my Wife and I. He was a true medical man. The nine years we spent in Gibson City we never thought of seeing anyone else. When he wanted something and you said no look out because he would bug you until he prevailed

Dr. Etherton was a wonderful dr. and friend. Actually he was the best. He delivered both of my girls and was our dr. until he retired. He remembered you whereever you met him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

Doc was a close friend at the Melbourne, Fl Hanger of the "QB"s". He was a delightful person and will be sorely missed by all. I grew up in Paxton and I really appreciated his total recall of events that had taken place in Paxton and the people of the area. He brought back many fond memories. Edson Etherton - Gone West.
