Not sure what to say?

Dr. Peirsol delivered me on Sept. 18,1943 in Old St.Agnes Hospital. She was our family Dr. for many yrs. She will be greatly missed. My youngest sister Madge was named after Dr. Peirsol. My parents thought very highly of the Dr.
With deepest sympathy to her family,

I was named after Dr. Peirsol. She was my families Dr. before I was born. Then when I came along my parents named me Madge. She was the sweetiest and most loving person, I remember she would come to my house when I was sick ( measles, mumps, chicken poxs) and play and read to me. Those were the good ole days. Thank you Dr. Madge for all the wonderful things that you did for me. I still look back and remember those times.Madge Sanchez 49yrs old

I have been told that I was Dr. Peirsol's first delivery and that when I fell out of the bunk bed, she came over to the house to assist and console my parents. The entire family appreciated her expertise, compassion and dedication as pediatrician and friend.

Thank you for being the kind of doctor for my Mom that encouraged her three daughters to seek the same. You were a beacon.

Dr. Peirsol delivered me! She took care of the 3 Castine girls from infancy. My mother & father speak highly of her. Reading her bio was fascinating; she was a remarkable woman. I wish I had known her better.

AN OUTSTANDING PERSON
