Not sure what to say?

Dr. Potts was the most compassionate, caring and best dentist to work for. How he treated his patients was exactly how he treated his employees. I loved my almost 7 years of working for him. My condolences go out to you Rise, Nathan and Emily. I found out he had passed after the funeral or I would have been there.

I´m so happy that Dr Potts was able to retire from Dentistry so he could focus on the farm and his family. He gave so much to his patients, especially by serving people in the Broadway corridor. He was dedicated, honest and treated everyone with respect. May he rest in peace.

I was one of Dr. Potts first patients and was with him until he retired. He was a wonderful dentist and also a good friend.

He was my denist for a number of years. He was a good man and genuinely concerned about his patients. May he rest in peace. Chris

Heaven has gained a very special angel, and a new bright star shines in the sky tonight, Rest in Peace Dr,Potts you have earned your heavenly rest. Thank you for your kindness and patience to my self and my family. You gave me my smile back, appreciated that so much. Never go down Broadway that I don't think of you and remember the good care we got there, my thanks once again

Thank you Dr Potts for being THE most friendly and caring dentist anyone could ask for. I have a dentist now that you taught actually and we often talk about what a wonderful human being you were. Your compassion was passed on to this student so "thank you".....RIP Dr. Potts....you certainly deserve it.

Jim was the kindness, caring person. He was a great dentist, always thinking of his patients. A good Huntington boy. Candy

I remember seeing Dr. Potts at the IUPUI regatta walking his daughter Emily's dog many years ago. I remember him most for his kind manner and gentle presence. I know he is resting easy now, maybe taking Daisy for another walk. To Emily, Nathan, and Mrs. Potts: I am so sorry for your loss. I hope you can find peace and patience in this time. Sending love from Marina, Mohsin, Dr. Nabi Sharif, Fauzia Sharif, Faryal, and Syra.
