I fondly remember Uncle Dick for his intelligence, crystal clear memory, and his stories about my own father. He was always interested in our lives and we had periodic long discussions up to about 2 months ago.

When I was young, I went to Dr Marcus for an appointment and it was him that was willing for me to give Hearing Aids a try. The doctor before him said that hearing aids w ould not work. I am so thankful for Dr Marcus agreeing to allow me to try Hearing aids
