I'm happy to see this page still active - He delivered all 3 of my parents kids. My parents continued to see him after he retired and even after his wife, Ruth passed on. He went to my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary in 2007, Ed & Sharon MacGregor. My parents thought very fondly of Dr. Niece. So did I - He did my last physical before I went into the Navy. Now Dr. Niece, his wife Ruth and my parents are all together looking down on their kids and grandkids. Bless them.

Nancie, I am so sorry for the loss of your father. I will keep you & your family in my thoughts & prayers at this difficult time.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Our condolences on the loss of your father.

He would sit in the back chatting with Jack and forget his schedule. We miss that old fashioned caring he gave. Recently we had some good laughs with him of some of our memories. He was great and we will miss him.

To The Family: Your father was our doctor and delivered my first child at Woodland Park. He took care of our family for years. When he retired, I missed that old fashioned caring that he gave to every patient. We had seen him at a couple of events through the years. He was kind enough to let my husband and I with our kids come up to the cabin. I loved that man with all my heart. My kids loved him too. Marie was always the one to give injections to the kids, but because she is my...

Carolyn:
I don't know if you remember me from our Oregon days, it has been a long time. I just wanted to send you and your family prayers at this difficult time. I hope you are well.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
