William Robert Cutting

In my last post, I didn't include all of my memories of Dr. Cutting and so I would like to share a couple more of them now. One of them was how Dr. Cutting used to say his favorite time of the workday was 5:00, and that's because he said he liked looking in his rear view mirror and watching the Eye Centers of Florida get smaller, and smaller and smaller. Just one of the many, little Dr. Cutting things I still laugh about. Dr. Cutting said that sometime ago he was struck by lightning...

I am so saddened to have learned of Bill Cutting's death. I worked with Dr. Cutting at the Eye Centers of Florida from 1989 (he was hired the same year as I) until 2003, when I moved. He was my favorite doctor and I always went out of my way to scribe for him and attend to his patients. I learned so much from him, he was so kind and he was funny, too. Every time I see or hear the words "Staten Island" I think of his Staten Island joke and it always makes me smile. The doctors and techs...

Bill and I were music buddies in 1967-1970 and lived in the same neighborhood in Bradenton, always turning each other on to the music we loved and shared and I see from his obituary that passion never waned. Sorry to see of his passing and tried contacting him in 2011 upon moving back to S Fl and Cape coral. He will be missed I am sure and also wondering what happened to his sister Leslie.
