JOSEPH DeROSE

We miss you, Joe! You were a great physician, teacher and a truly great human being.

Dr. DeRose was my teacher, mentor, friend and primary care provider. He was loyal, generous, funny, engaging, encouraging, a hard worker and compassionate. He loved people and loved to teach. He empowered me in every level. His wisdom was matchless. He will be missed. May his soul rest in peace and rise in glory. My condolences ti his family.

Dr. DeRose was my primary care provider for almost 30 years. He was a very caring human being. Condolences to his family and all who knew him. He was a friend to many. I´m glad I had the opportunity to thank him for all he did for me. I know he must be continuing his conversations with God.

Deepest condolences on your loss. Such a great teacher you were. - Anila Khaliq MD

Joe was a close friend at both Xavier and Holy Cross, Joe's dad drove us both up to Holy Cross when we entered as freshmen in 1955. He and his family are in my thoughts and prayers. Kelvin MacKavanagh
