Not sure what to say?

Dr Espy, I learned so much in my time with you. So sad to see this, as I´ve thought of you often over my career. You set a standard that has still not been met or duplicated by another. Fondly, Sharon `95-`97

Dear Polly,

I just heard the news of John's death, and am both stunned and saddened. I always enjoyed him....his dry wit and honesty.

I have very fond memories of last August in Nantucket. I was lucky enough to be seated next to him at dinner, during which time he and I covered a myriad of topics....in depth.

I left your house thinking that he and I had had our best exchange ever! I relish the memory.

John C. and I have you and your family in our thoughts...

Dear Mrs. Espy,
Just saw the notice in the St. James' enews and I wanted to send my prayers your way. On behalf of the Chisolm family,I send our sympathies to you and your children. I remember how much your husband helped my father with his detached retina during Mom's last days.
Fondly,
Allison Chisolm Hansen

Dear Polly,
I was saddened to hear of John's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. It has been a great privilege to care for many of his patients; it is clear that he was a wonderful man and a talented and caring physician to generations of families.
He will be missed.

Dear Mrs.Espy
I am so sorry to hear that Dr Espy passed away. He only retired recently and was my excellent eye doctor for many years. He treated me early one morning after a scary night when I could not contact my previous doctor. I had a torn retina, he
saw me immediately, made sure his partner treated me correctly and I was on my way. This was at least 15 years ago. I miss him.
Sincerely
Sandra Gooder
