Not sure what to say?

I was blessed to grow up and raised around The Ferris Family. I do not have the words to express all that Doctor Ferris did for my family from countless meals, fishing trips, working on their farm and after hours medical treatment. The Ferris Family is the reason for the phrase "It takes a Village to a raise a Child." Dr. Ferris will be missed and I pray for his children and grandchildren. TLB

We just recently learned of the passing of Dr. Ferris. John and Sara became very dear friends of ours after we met them at a Lebanese convention in Nashville many years ago. They would often spend weekends with us coming in town with a truckload of grapefruit. We always enjoyed and cherished their special friendship. John was the "salt of the earth" and Sara was the "Southern Lady" -- soft spoken, gentle and caring. All life comes to an end and with much sadness we bid farewell to John....

A kind soul and truly caring doctor.

I knew Dr. Ferris and family as I attended St. Anthony grade school with many of his children. I was also team mates with Kaki, John, Chris, Tita on the city swim team. Dr. Ferris and Mrs. Ferris always treated my family and me with kindness and respect. A genuine and loving couple. My condolences to the entire family as he joins his true love in God's loving embrace. Rest in Peace.

To the John Ferris Family, My thoughts, prayers and love go out to all of you! Dr. Ferris made an indelible and profoundly positive impact on everyone that was fortunate enough to get to know him. He was my mama's favorite doctor for many years and one of our most favorite San Benito Bank & Trust Co friends for many years. Rod and I used to lease the property, now known as Nueces Park, back in the early 80's to run our donor cows. He was an original! If goodness was gold, he certainly had...

My condolences to the family of Dr. Ferris.
