David and family, although it sounds as if your father had a full and happy life, it is never easy to lose a parent. May you find peace and comfort during this difficult time. Blessings, Ruth (Hargis) Maus

I was privileged to get to know Joel Reibstein when he owned Northside Family Prescription Center. Although he was always busy and taking charge of everything and everybody, every minute of the day, he always had time to smile and visit with me when I came to call on him. Topeka needs many more souls like Joel Reibstein in its midst. Peace, happiness, wellness and safety for now and evermore, Joel Reibstein and family. Shalom.
