Dr Kruse started his dental practice in a building that was my family's grocery store. We started going to him for dental work. He was so kind and gentle. Jim and Dottie always treat us as family and a true friend. We will miss him.

Dr. Kruse gave me my first part-time dental assisting job - 17 yesterday old, and my first dental hygiene job right out of college in 1978. He was the kindest boss I had throughout my 38 year career. I am so thankful I knew him, he truly was a very important part of my life. Thank you Dr. Kruse. My prayers are with the family.
