Read MoreI am so sorry for our loss. Dr DeHart was a true Healer. I remembered some of his Healing techniques including Water Skiing in Sunny San Antonio. If that didn't cure your Blues than maybe a trip to FudRuckers or a Large Helping Of Home Made Ice Cream. Thanks for being a part of my Life. Dr Rick Decker CAPTAIN USCG DDS.

Roy was a special mentor and teacher to all his students. I have never met anyone quite like him since my residency days in OK City for Occupational Medicine. He taught me so much more that just facts and medicine. He was a true Christian and very kind person. He will be deeply misses having touched so many lives. May God's peace rest with you.

While I did not know of Dr DeHart personally, I came to know of him shortly after coming to work at Vanderbilt. All of his co-workers adored him and he touched their lives deeply. I wish I had met such a warm soul. What a wonderful sense of humor and an immense wealth of knowledge from a life well lived. -Gregory Ray

Roy (Dr. DeHart) was a mentor to me going back 30y in Tulsa OK. Honestly he was one of the most pleasant, patient, kind, and intelligent people I have ever met. The world was a better place with him and I'm certain he will be missed by many. Rest in peace my friend and I am looking forward to seeing you in the afterlife!

Dear Julia, John and Evelyn, and families,
This morning when I opened my email from a busy day yesterday, I was shocked to find your message, Julia, about Roy's passing. Tried to call from my address files but noted a (918) disconnected number. Am sending deepest condolences and sympathies to you and your family. As you know from our long association at Prestwick Air Base in Scotland from 1962-65, we had some great times and professional work together. I also noted, Dr. Bob Thomas on...
