Mrs. Wetzig. Laura, Mike and Wetzig family,

I remember your Husband and Dad best from Laura and Mike's wedding. He made us feel so welcome in Colorado Springs and we had such a wonderful time. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Happy Valentine's Day, Papa. We love you !!

Dear Family,
I was saddened to hear of the passing of Dr. Paul. I was one of his first patients as he began his practice in Colorado Springs. I was only 3 years old. Dr. Paul preformed several surgeries on my eye. I was born with Glaucoma and, in recent years, learned that was because of a condition called Sturge-Weber Syndrome. About 12 years ago I finally lost my eye and the surgeon who preformed the enucleation asked who my Opthomologist was over the years as he said he had done...

Dee, Carl & Richard:

We were so sorry to just hear of Paul's passing. We are spending the winter in Florida and just got the news.

We have known you for so many years, Dee, and have been patients of Paul, Carl & Richard.

He will be missed.

Our thoughts are with you at this time.

We are so sorry for your loss. Dr. Paul was an amazing man and a good friend. He will be missed by all. Our sympathies are with all of you.

I will always treasure the time I spent with Dr. Paul. I was out of town at the time of his passing and missed the Memorial service. He was more than a very special man, he was a friend that I treasured.

Dear Mrs Paul Wetzig, Drs. Carl, Richard, and families,

I was saddened to learn of the death of Dr. Paul. I saw him first in 1970 after a serious head injury. He performed 3 eye surgeries and except for a little minor double vision in the periphery, I am well. I was very grateful for his expertise and genuine care through the years. I moved to Tucson in 1994 and continue to get my eye care at Colorado Springs Eye Clinic, now with Dr. Carl. Thanks Drs. Wetzig for being there...

I was sorry to hear of your loss. I was a patient of his when working in Colo many yrs ago. I also trained at Beth-El and was fortunate to work with him as a student and later when in the Operating Room. He was a great person, very good to me both as a nurse and patient.

Good friend and a super human being. He accomplished so much-if only we could do the same. Sincere condolences to all the Wetzig family. I feel fortunate to have known many of them and Paul.
