Not sure what to say?

Just wanted to leave a quick note and say that I have been thinking about "Dr. Bob" and remembering all the smiles he brought to my face while I was given the opportunity to care for him at the Hospice Care Center. Thanks for all the smiles!

Dear Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Dr. Yeakley was always very special to me. We were good friends for over 40 years and he helped raise me in my professional role as a RN. He is and will be deeply missed. You are all in my prayers.
Love, Anne Berrodin RN

Dr. Yeakley was a gentleman and a gentle man. This was a wonderous quality in a surgeon. I worked with him for many years at St. T. His twinkly eyes were missed at his retirement. He was known as our "family surgeon" having done surgery on my mother, husband and daughter. My thoughts and prayers are with you, his family, now.

What a learned and distinguished man your father was! After having read the news article about him, I now know why Jean has the energy she does and the compassion and care-giving qualities, too. His is a life to be celebrated. My sympathy for your loss.
Love,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
