Your father brought my little brother back in 1963. Our family was served by his clinic for the next two decades. Before my mom's passing in 1987, she came to him for a second opinion. He was always so helpful, so caring. He was a good man and i just wanted to let you know, because we knew him we know what a good doctor is supposed to be like.
God rest his soul, he really was a good man.
