John Vernon Waddle DDS

Dear Jean and Family, Just heard that there was a new angel in heaven.... So many loved Dr Waddle! Our family included... knowing you all our entire lives! My Mom, Katie, we know, was there with Many others to greet him - a friend since early childhood. We send our Love to each of you! Blessings alway!

I am just learning of Dr. Waddle's death and so many kind, and positive thoughts are filling my mind. He was our family dentist which was not an easy job. Several of us had terrible issues with our teeth. Unlike some dentists, Dr. Waddle would offer advice, but he was never impatient or judgmental (and my teeth were difficult enough that he easily could've been both). He was the nicest man and a wonderful dentist. I think he was the one who inspired my mom to go to Smoke Enders, which I'm...

Dear Jean, I am sad to hear of John´s passing. I absolutely loved my very favorite dentist. During the years that I was his patient was the only time in my life that I didn´t mind going to the dentist......so kind and gentle and most of all so easy on the eyes ! I always marveled at the wonderful marriage the two of you shared. The two of you were truly blessed to have found each other. May you and your wonderful family soon get over the pain of losing him and relish all the sweet...

... on to the next great adventure! sincere love & prayers. Peggy

Dr. Marty Meyer and family extend our most sincere condolences. Marty and family thought very highly of John. Rest in peace. We will always remember your kindness and beautiful smile. God bless.

Sharing in your sadness as we all remember Dr. Waddle. What an amazing person and dentist, and what a remarkable life he lived. I feel so lucky that I had the opportunity to work with him at El Rio. We shared many laughs and good times. I will always remember our rival between Northwestern and Iowa. I will greatly miss him.

The good doctor was more than an excellent dentist. He made us feel a part of his extended family with the way he took an interest in our lives. He loved his family and played his daughters' music to us with pride. He will be missed by many.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Dr. Waddle was always so kind. We were friends of the family. When I was in school I used to tell my friends that I had the cutest dentist. I have very fond memories of him. May he rest in peace. May God bless his soul and the family during this time.
