Not sure what to say?

My children and I loved Dr. Laney.

Dr. Laney was my childhood doctor until I was 21 (1984) and he told me I was too old to go to him anymore. lol I loved his sense of humor and his kind nature. RIP Dr. Laney.

God rest the soul of this kind and gentle doctoc with the big laugh and rosy cheeks. My first child's pediatrician.

Dr. Laney was my doctor for many years. He took great care of me and my mom. As a kid I never felt uncomfortable around him. Me, and many other children and parents, were lucky to have such a wornderful doctor. My deepest condolences and god bless. Sarah Hardimon

I am a friend of Beth's from Ole Miss and am so sorry to read about Dr. Laney's passing. I met Dr. & Mrs. Laney one time when they came to visit Beth and he made his outstanding brisket for us! I accidentally found this article when I was doing a search of Beth's name. Beth, if you read this, I'd love to get back in touch. Again, I'm so sorry about your dad.

I am very sorry to hear about Dr. Laney. I was a paitent of his for many years, I have very fond memories of him. I went to Dr. Laney and when I had my daughter she went to him until he retired. He always made you feel comfortable as a little kid. When I was little girl I went to him and I was sick, he said well you are going to have to get a vaccination and I said okay as long as its not a shot, he looked at my mom and she said it is a shot. It was funny. We all were blessed to have such...

I was terribly saddened to hear of Dr Laney's passing. I quite literally owe him my very life. I will never forget him. He will live on forever in the hearts and minds of so many he touched with not only his gift of medicine, but just by being who he was, a truly remarkable man.
My deepest condolences,

Dr. Laney was the pediatrician, bar none. He took wonderful care of my children and made me feel like a great mom. The docs that took over his practice have very big shoes to fill. We will all miss Dr. Laney. Condolences to the family.

Pat, Kerri, and kids. We are thinking of you, and we are very sorry for your loss.
