Mrs Mason, my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. I'm so happy that we were able to reconnect when you and Dr. Mason came in for appointments. Many great memories of Coolidge Rd, and it was always such a pleasure seeing you both. He will be missed.

I now live in Arlington Heights, IL and was stunned to see Dr. Mason's obituary in the Chicago Tribune. Having grown up in Worcester, a daughter of Albert Krinsky, also a psychiatrist, I remember meeting Dr. Mason over the years. I didn't remember that they both graduated from Tufts Medical school and that, had my father still been alive, they would be the same age. They knew so many of the same wonderful people in Worcester's "helping" community. I'm so sorry for your loss.

My deepest sympathies on the loss of your loved one. He was a dedicated doctor and helped so many people when I met him in the 1960's. He will be missed by all who knew him.
