To the family of Mr. Marquardt,

Your father was one of my favorite patients. I felt so lucky to have cared for him. We spent many of days and nights together and no matter how bad he felt, he continued to smile. He was an inspiration. He loved all of you very much. All of you were very caring. I will never forget him.
