Hervey E. Averette

I just came across Dr. Averette's obituary. He saved my wife's life in 1975. May he rest in peace. God bless you, doctor.

Dear Barkley, Ellen and Genea:

It has taken me this long to come to grips with the passing of Hervey. He was truley a remarkable man, husband, father and friend. His kindness will be remembered by many, both friends and patients, as well as colleagues. Mostly I will remember the fun, the sailing and boating, the rabbits, the girls growing up, and his infectious smile. Can't forget the Porshe either. I do not think I will ever respect anyone as much because he touched so many...

Dear Barkley and Family:
Jane and I were saddened over the passing of Hervey. He was truly one of the most outstanding and dynamic persons that I have ever

be indebted to him for my training
and as my mentor.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Jane and Ron Dudan

He will always be in my memory as one of the finest physicians with which I have been associated. My thoughts and...

Barkley,I go back with Hervey till 1962. I was an intern and he was a resident. He was one of the reasons I went into OB-GYN. He was a great teacher,a true southern gentleman,a great oncology surgeon, and a wonderful friend. I have been out of town and just got back and received the sad news. God bless you and your family.

To the family of Dr. Averette
It was my priveledge as a student and a resident to learn from this remarkable man. I was at a medical meeting in Boston several years ago and was asked by one of the other doctors if I knew Dr Averette when I mentioned that I trained in Miami. I said I did and asked if he knew Dr. Averette. He said no but he was from France and in Europe the nitrazine test, used everywhere to detect rupture of the membranes is known by its inventors name as the Averette...

Hervey and I were colleagues over many years at UM, and I appreciated his insight, wisdom, warmth, spirit, and strength. I was saddened and shocked by the news.
