Dear Marthajane, Paul, Peter, Todd, and Trent,
We were sorry to hear of Fred’s death. Some of us would have gone to the funeral, but we did not know about it until that day.
We remember the good times when you lived in Chatham. May God be with you all in this time of need.

Dear Marthajane,
My condolences on Fred's passing. He (and you) have always been among my most respected "upperclassmen" from my days in the Class of '55 from CHS. My sincere sympathy to you and all your family.

'Back in the day', Dr Meyerhoefer was our pediatrician of choice, from the time our three sons were born right through college. I remember him coming into the exam room when the kids were little with a smile and a "how ya doin' chief?" As young parents, way back then, we trusted him, and his partners, with the health of our children (no small matter) and we were always happy with the care provided.
God be with you in your sorrow and know that he will be remembered fondly by so many people.

Dr. Meyerhoefer was our pediatrician 'back in the day' from the time our three sons were born right up through college. I remember him walking into the exam room when the kids were little with a smile and a "how ya doin' chief ?"
God be with you in your saddness and know that he will be remembered fondly by many people.

Meyerhoefer Family,
We cherish the fond memories of Dr Fredrick Meyerhoefer as a devoted caring pediatrician to our now adult children.
He helped us understand the "growing pains" associated with parenthood. He made us better parents and grandparents. He prescribed the 'best"medicine for our children.
Sincerely,
Edmund and Geraldine Farris
and our children Pamela, Dr Edmund, and Sherri

The doctor was one of my favorites, as he helped take care of my children, years ago. You can always tell when someone loves what they do - and I know there are many, many of us, who are glad he was one of them. May God be close to you all... God bless.
