Dr. Erich Pontasch

Being a former resident of the Toledo area, I often returned to the ER of both Riverside and St Anne's Hospital for emergency medicine. When Dr Pontasch was on the floor I always felt blessed to have him as my doctor. He was a very caring and kind man and and a very competent doctor. He will be dearly missed by all that knew him.

Dear Dr. Greg and Pontasch family. I worked with your father in ER xray while he was at St. V's and couldnt have asked to have a better role model in my early career. I am saddened by his passing way too soon and hope that you find strength in each other to remember your great times spent with him. No words can really express the outstanding caregiver he is.

I will miss ERICH very much He was a great doctor nfriend I went wth him in the 7th n 8th grade at ST JEROMES IN WALBRIDGE OHIO RIP UFRIEND MARSHA DOOLIN

I worked with Erich at Riverside Hospital in 1987 in the ER.. he was truly the most caring and compassionate doctor. The world is a better place for having Erich in it. Rest in heaven doctor Pontasch.

Heart felt condolences to his family.

Memories of Erich and the Pontasch family are
from his grade school days at St. Thomas. My condolences to Delores, Elisabeth, Kurt and Marty.

With a sad heart I write this. The world has lost a pillar in the Community, a Healer, a Family Man, and a neighbor who watched him grow into the Man he has become.
My Wife and I were neighbors to his Mom & Dad when they lived in the Country, in Wood County. We watched the family bloom into what they are today. When the boys went to High School, we took them to downtown Toledo (where we worked) to catch the school bus to St. John's.

Love and prayers to and your family.

Jim, Shirley Bilkovsky, and Maks too

Greg, Scott and Sue my deepest sympathies to you for your loss. Your father was an amazing Doctor and friend to many. It was my pleasure to know Greg and Scott at Temperance Rd. Elementary and their awesome parents. Know that your dad may be gone, but never, ever forgotten. May he Rest In Peace.

RIH Dr. Pontasch. You always took such good care of my accident prone son and you were there for me during my medical issues. You will forever be remembered for your compassion and the quality care you provided for your patients. You will be missed dearly. It was an honor knowing you.
