Dear family,
I remember Dr. Jean Feys quite well as he was the youngest brother of my father, the late Dr.George Feys, and we visited him on two occasions in his residence in Bethesda, Maryland. Accept my sincere condolences.

I was one of Dr. Feys' patients when I was a young woman in DC. He was very influential in my life, and I've occasionally looked for information about him; I'm very saddened to learn of his death. My deepest condolences to his family.
