I miss Dr. Eisenberg everyday. He's the only dentist I had from the age of 16 until his passing in 2014 (36 years). I think and pray of and for his family often. Peace continue to be with you.

My husband and I just relocated back to Maryland after been gone for six years. I told my husband the first thing that I was going to do was see if Dr Eisenberg was talking new and old patients at that time. So today I went online to see if the dental office was open but forgot how to spell Eisenberg, when googling the name his obit came up and I'm in total shock! My husband & I send our deepest sympathy and prayers to the entire family. May Gods peace & comfort surround you and yours at this difficult time.

Rochelle & family,
Nancy and I are deeply saddened to learn of Stephen's death. Don Henley and Glenn Frey (The Eagles) expressed this sentiment quite well in the title and refrain of on one of their songs -There's a Hole in the World Tonight."
Yes, with Stephen's passing there is, indeed, a "hole in the world." And, it will be some time before the hole in all of our hearts is filled.
So glad we were able to reconnect with your both at dinner on your last trip to Kiawah Island, SC.

Dear Rochelle,
I read your husbandSteve's obituary in the Washington Jewish Week and e-mailed Deane Gross and Collette Winston to jog our memories. Yes we all knew each other in elementary school and I think you may have even lived in Rock Creek Gardens where I lived. We are so sorry for your loss and can't imagine to know how it feels like. I read that you have three grown children and I don't remember grandchildren. May you all share wonderful memories and be able to laugh, cry and celebrate the wonderful life he had with you and your kids. Sincerely, Rona Karton Elias

Dear Rochelle,
I am heartsick to learn of Stephen's death. You were one of the first couples at whose marriage I was privileged to officiate. I have treasured every contact we have had since that time. I was particularly touched to see and speak with you both when I was at Temple Isaiah this past October. If you would not mind, I would very much like to call you on the phone. If that would be OK, please send me the best number to reach you to [email protected]. In the meantime please know that Stephen and you both inspired me, and I will always treasure his memory.

I am so sorry for your family's loss. I was a year behind Steve @ Kennedy and hadn't seen him for 40 years until the reunion a few years ago. He was the same friendly, funny guy. I saw him again in May at another JFK reunion. I'm happy to call my friend.

I am sorry for your loss and know it will take time to heal. Please know that as a patient for over 35 years, he spoke of you often and shared your vacation experiences and pictures.

Dear Eisenberg Family,
The Taweel family is so very sorry for your loss. Steve was a very special next-door -neighbor for many years. We raised our children along side of one another,enjoyed Labor Day picnics, teaching kids to ride bikes, along with so many other fond memories. I always think of him on Memorial Day when the pools open, because, no matter the weather, Steve would be at Dickinson pool that weekend. He was a great, helpful neighbor and friend.
