Not sure what to say?

I was one of Dr. Tarle's patients from 1978- 1988ish. I remember his calm and loving presence. I recently had a memory of the Ferris wheel that was in the waiting room that I was totally mesmerized by. Somehow going to the doctor's office is one of my more cherished childhood memories.

I remember going to Dr. Tarle's office as a child. I loved watching the birds in the waiting room. I always remember him fondly. I am sorry for your loss.

Dr Tarle came into the practice along with founder and my Pediatrician Dr. Robert Dostal (sp?). He later became my childrens doctor.I remember his and Dr Dostal's careing nature, and always, always, making me and then my children feel safe and cared for.

As always, Dr. Tarle, you were the greatest! You helped me raise my babies and were always there to talk with on the phone. I still love you so much for that. I liked the car that you drove also. I pray you’re with Jesus now, right where you belong. Ann Bruce

Dr. Tarle was the best pediatrician this world has ever known; even better than Dr. Dostal whom I thought the world of but actually he was before my time. My condolences to the family always for loaning him to all of us for so many years, making him a family member of ours too.

Thank you, Dr. Tarle for helping me raise my three children, I could never have done it without you.

Dr. Tarle, you were my favorite doctor in the whole world. No one on earth loved you more than me and my three children. R I P

He was a fantastic doctor to both of my children

Something made me think of Dr. Tarle today and when I searched for his name to see if by chance he was still practicing I came across his obituary. He was my pediatrician growing up and he was a wonderful, kind doctor and I didn't want to leave. I finally had to when I started to see young girls not too much older bring their own babies in to Dr. Tarle! :-) Had I not lived so far away at the time when I had my own children I would have brought them in to him as well. What a sweet man! This...
