Not sure what to say?

Dr Purcell's hands were the first hands to hold me. He was my birthing Dr. I needed my Birth certificate and found his signature on it.

My mom tells me he was so excited when I was born and he told my mom I was boy.

This is some 50 years ago.

I read his legacy and am so humbled and in awe of the person who first held me and helped birth me.

I can only imagine how many souls he welcomed to this earth! How many happy moms went thru his care.

My condolences...
