Not sure what to say?

Dr. Strom was my doctor from the time I was 9 years old until he retired. He was one of the few doctors I actually looked forward to seeing. He was a very kind and caring person and I was sorry to hear of his passing.

It is with heartfelt sadness that I learned of Dr. Strom's passing. I was his secretary for a few years up until he retired in 1996. It was an honor to work for such a kind, compassionate and brilliant person. I often ran into him at Rhode Island Hospital where I have worked since his retirement and he would always greet me with a big hug! I will never forget him. My deepest sympathy to Mrs. Strom and his family.

Our deepest sympathy to the Strom family for the passing of this wonderful physician and gentleman. John was an exemplary teacher and role model for several generations of medical students, interns, residents and colleagues. What a privilege it was to be his student and colleague.
Unfortunately we are out of the country and will be unable to attend the services on Saturday but our thoughts and prayers will be with John's family and friends then and for years to come.

Dr.Strom was my husband's doctor when he had a stroke in 1977.He was a kind ,caring and gentle man.God knows that he did what was intended for him, with graciousness and kindness.My condolences to the family.

In February 1964 I took my father to Doctor Strom, who diagnosed him with ALS. To this day I remember what a classy man he was. It was a cold day in February and my dad was not very ambulatory. Doctor Strom helped me put him in the car. I have often thought of this and the good Doctor. I am truly saddened by his loss and wish to extend my condolences.
