To Joe, Margie and family,

Your dad was my father's cousin as well as my doctor during my teen years. My dad and his sisters always liked "Ted" and I could see why as he was such a nice man.

My condolences on your loss

Dear Marcus family-what a very special human being your dad/grandfather was. I knew him all of my life because he and my father were dear friends/colleagues starting in their childhood. Dad thought the world of him. Healing prayers being sent your way.
