Not sure what to say?

Dear Dr. Zeff,
You were my optometrist and friend for 30 years. I just found out today of your passing when I went for my annual exam at your office now run by Dr. Bourgoin. I am so sad I could not attend your service. I just did not know. Rest in peace good and gentle man.

As a little girl you taught me to sing "On the Good Ship Lollipop" and to this day I keep all the wonderful memories of the time I spent with you and Maggie close to my heart.

Uncle Doc ~ You brought me so much joy...so much laughter...thank you for loving me and making me feel special. My memories of you are in my heart. Love you ~ Becky

I was a patient of Doc's and will never forget when I got my first pair of glasses and he picked them out for me. They were the most outrageous glasses and I got quite a few laughs. He was quick with a joke and always made you laugh. Will miss Doctor Zeff~ May he rest in paradise!

TO THE ZEFF FAMILY: YOUR HUSBAND AND
FATHER WAS ONE OF THE KINDEST MEN
I HAVE MET. SO SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT
HIS PASSING. PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU
ALL.

There was only one GREAT. We were the lucky ones to have been in his life.

Char and Chuck said, "See ya Doc, you were an original."

"If you don't see what you're looking for, you've come to
the right place,"

We will miss talking with him at family events. I just realized we've known this wonderful man for 43 years. My mother, Phyllis Rogers, and I want to wish you our deepest sympathy.
