Not sure what to say?

Although I didn't know Dr Klein, I've come to know and love his daughter Nancy through our BSF study of Isaiah this year. It's been and will continue to be my joy to pray for your family. I just connected the dots to realize his son Doug is our son Mark's orthodontist!!! What a small world! Praying you feel Jesus' loving arms carrying you through this time. God's richest blessings always!

My deepest condolences to Jean and family. I have many fond memories of Paul and you all You always made us feel welcome when we'd come to pay a Christmas visit. Circumstances seem to have made us strangers, and I regret that exceedingly. May fond memories replace the sadness now in your hearts.
Love,

Paul was the most intelligent,inventive and full of energy person I had the experience to work with over my years in Orthodontics. He was always had his priorities in the right place and was a true pleasure to be around. My sincere condolences to Jean,Doug and the entire family.

I think my sister and I must have been among Dr. Klein's first patients in 1954, and what a wonderful job he did for us. Then in the late '70s and '80s we took our 3 children to his Oswego office for their orthodontia. We all appreciated Dr. Klein's wonderfully caring, thoughtful manner and competence. It was fun to see him throughout the years skiing at Mt Hood and having dinner at Marco's. Our condolences to the family; we know he will be greatly missed.

Dr. Paul Klein gave me a beautiful smile and I thank him for that. Doug gave both of my children beautiful smiles. Thanks, Doug.

I still remember when we were kids - our families both went to Oahu and we spent a lot of time together. Remember going to the movies? We saw "Wait Until Dark." I was soooo scared! My parents (Dick and Shirley Adolphson) had a great time with your parents on that trip. I lost my Mom in October. It's very sad. My deepest condolences to the entire Klein...

My condolences to the Klein family & especially Jean. Dr. Klein was a very fine man. I was his first orthodontic assistant in 1954. I had just graduated from high school & he was just starting his practice. Paul Jr. was 4 I think & waited at the office while Jean kept OB appointments & Nancy was born shortly after I was employed. I remember the day Doug was born, Flag Day I think it was. I worked for Dr. Klein until my first daughter was born. He was a perfectionist but couldn't have...

Condolences to Jean and the entire family. Paul did enjoy a lengthy and most interesting life. Shalom

Doug - Sorry to hear your father has passed, but we know you will see him again one day. It sounds like he was a great man, and I'm sure he will be forever proud of you, how you have continued what he started. All the best to you and your family.
