It has been a few years since Dr. and Mrs. Empey were our neighbors. Of course, we appreciated having good neighbors and the occasional visits with Mrs. Empey, the Browns, and with Marsha and Frank. Good neighbors are a blessing. We send our condolences and know you will find great comfort in the love and support of your family and friends and the recognition of the service Dr. Empey gave to the community.

Dearest Dorothy & Family
Dr. Emphey was the best, He was my Dr. as a little Boy, my father cut his hair on occasion. He always reassured me and I loved our conversations about fishing. The last time I saw him, he was retired and I delivered the mail to his office, he showed me a fish he had caught. my condolences.

I believe I spoke to Dr. Empey by phone in 1966 shortly after I purchased his 1963 Buick Riviera from Wallace Buick. Although I don't remember the details of our phone conversation, I remember him as a most gracious man.

Excuse me if this message sounds shalllow but my fondest memories revolve around my cars--when I bought them, from whom and many other good memories.

Not only do I still own this beautiful Riviera--in exactly the same condition as when Dr. Empey...

What fond memories I have of Marcel (Dr. Empey). Thank you for sharing him with so many patients and friends. I so appreciate my old friends' parents, and Dorothy and Marcel are among them. We had such fun when the Sept. girls celebrated their 40th birthdays in our parents military uniforms. God Bless your family. Love, Claudette

Dr Marcel Empey was one of the kindest and smartest men we had the privilege to know. We also had the great honor of calling him Uncle. He lived a wonderful life with his wife, our Aunt Dorothy, that is an example of true love and frienship. He lived as we all should, giving to others, honest and hard working. He made us laugh and gave us roots. We will miss him greatly. We will continue to pray for his entire family. With much love and fondness always. Greg, Cathy and Jon
