Dear Mrs. Jafroodi and family,
I worked with Dr. Jafroodi in the early 1990s when I first moved to Gaffney after getting out of the USAF. I always enjoyed working with him and considered him a wonderful doctor and gentleman.
I read about his passing in the Gaffney Ledger and I wanted to send you my condolences. He obviously spent a lifetime taking care of women and his works are his legacy.
Sincerely,
