Not sure what to say?

I remember Dr Learned as not only a compassionate man, but as a fierce advocate for the needs of his patients. A wonderful man who combined the best of old fashioned care with the most up to date medicine.

DR LEARNED WAS OUR FIRST AND ONLY DOCTOR UNTIL HE RETIRED. HE WAS THE BEST DOCTOR IN LAWRENCE AND A GOOD FRIEND.WE ARE SORRY TO LOSE SUCH A GREAT PERSON

Sharon, I am so sorry to hear about your dad. As you know, his office was right down the street from us for many years and he was my father's doctor. My deepest sympathies to you and your family.

My family and I were privileged to have Dr. Learned as our physician. There was no better or more caring man, and his doctoring skills were exemplary. My deepest condolences to his family and to the community he served.

Dr. Learned and his wife were loving, caring people. I remember many years ago when I worked in the office at LMH, a bad car accident happened. Dr. Learned performed surgeries on several members of the family injured in the accident--and this was 9 or 10 in the evening.

Copy of letter from Dr to my parents

Dr. Learned worked on me numerous times in his office and at the emergency room (LMH). I still have a copy of the letter he wrote to my parents in February of 1967, explaining to them my progress from a broken leg I received in Junior High football. I can't imagine any doctor in today's world, one, taking the time, and two delivering the message so eloquently. I will always remember him fondly. My sincerest sympathy to the entire family.

My sympathy goes out to the family during your time of grief. May God's loving-kindness comfort you and help you through this difficult time. (Psalm 119:50,76)

We are so sorry, Sharon, to hear about your father. After reading his obituary, I wished I would have known him other than a member of Plymouth Church. Please know that you and your entire family are in our thoughts and prayers at this sad time.

Dr. Learned showed much compassion for my mother during her final days. My family will always treasure our fond memories of Dr. Learned and Barbara.
