I'm so awfully sad to hear about the passing of Dr. Brignola last year. I can say without any hesitation, that he was one of the most genuine people I've ever known. His willingness to serve and comfort his patients will be sorely missed and not easily replaced. My condolences and my comfort go out to all of you; Dolores, Barbara, Debra, Guy and Michael. I hope time has brought you all some measure of peace. Dr. "B" was an extraordinary man.

Please know how sad I was, Guy, to learn of the loss of your father. He will live on through you as one of his legacies. May the wonderful memories you have of him comfort you.

With love, Joan Davidson
