Richard "Dick" Steele

We are so sorry to hear of Dick's passing. He is a bright and beautiful soul, who made the world a better place with every day he was in it.. He was our Dentist, and he was our friend, sublime in both, and we feel lucky to have known him. Know that we will miss him greatly.
Love and Sorrow,
Nate Dallolio and Jenny Peterson

We were Dr Steele's patients from day one in Boise!! We loved him like Family!
We will keep Mrs Steele in our prayers! Our love to Christine, Karen and Gina. Mike and Peggy Sullivan

So extremely bummed. I was a new patient. Dr. Steele took a mold of my teeth and on my second appointment, explained in detail how every tooth positively or negatively impacted its surrounding teeth. He said he could get my teeth perfectly lined up and recommended Dr. Tingey for my braces. I was looking forward to my next appointment because he was so smart and educated. Will be difficult to find another dentist like him.

Gone, but never forgotten. You were an angel on earth and my favorite dentist of all time, ever! I never liked going to the dentist, but knowing I'd get to see and talk with you and your amazing staff made it so much easier. Judy, I will cherish seeing you in Dick walking around my old neighborhood and always taking the time to stop and talk and catch up, especially about my kids! I love you so much and am so, so sorry for your loss.

We feel so fortunate to have been patients of Dr. Steele. He was kind, gentle, and caring. He was so engaging and interesting to talk to, he made you forget being at the dentist! If he weren't our dentist, we would choose him as a friend. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to his family and colleagues.

Judith, I just learned about Dick's passing. Dr. Steele was a kind, gentle man who loved you more than anything in the world. I remember how proud he was at your recent reading at Rediscovered Books. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Dear Judy,
We are heartbroken for you.

We are so saddened to hear of Dr. Steele's passing. He was our dentist for almost 35 years. We will always remember his kindness, warmth and humor. He and his wonderful staff made going to the dentist "almost" fun. I especially remember our enjoyable talks about gardening. Two years ago, Dr. Steele gave me a cutting from his rubber tree. I'll think of him when I water my little rubber tree, and when I'm tending my garden.

Out thoughts are with all the family and staff.

Kind and gentle. Interested and interesting. The ultimate professional. Dick was my dentist but somehow also my friend. We didn't socialize except for occasionally running into each other at the store in search of ingredients for an interesting meal. Dick had that unique quality of building very personal bonds with those around him. I will so miss my friend and dentist, Dick Steele. My sincere condolences to Judy and his long-time incredible staff, Christine, Gena and Karen.
