RIMGAUDAS NEMICKAS M.D.

He taught me so much about pateints personalities. He taught me to assess pateints innuendos, words and character. Medicine is so much more this than the stethescope. Thanks Rim for making me a successful cardiologist. I am saddened.

Dear Joan, I am so sorry for your loss. I was on the internet searching for USAF Hosp. Wiesbaden people when Ray's obit came up.I worked in the E.R. and the nights that Ray was M.O.D.were always interesting and amusing to say the least.I remember the Porche. While watching T.V. one day, I saw Ray on the "Phil Donahue Show". Those Wiesbaden days were the best. Ed Henneberry ([email protected])

Dear Joan, just today I learned of Ray's death from one of the pharmaceutical reps. Carol and I were in Costa Rica for a wedding last February and just happen to hear the terrible news today, June 8. You have our deepest sympathy and condolences. Joe and Carol Valaitis

To the family of Ray Nemickas: Please accept my condolences. Ray and I were stationed at Wiesbaden USAF Hospital in the 1960's. He admired my Porsche so bought one himself. I remember fun weekends travelling together. They were good days. I only saw Ray once or twice after that, but have memories of our trips to Copenhagen, Paris. I'll try to find a picture of him atop the Eifel Tower.

Dear Joan and Family -

I'm so very, very sorry to hear of your loss. I remember hearing my Mother and Grandmother speak of Dr. Nemickas with such fondness and affection ... and I remember with gratitude your kind tributes when my grandmother passed away in 1995. Please know that your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

My parents (Ignacas and Felomena Kolas) welcomed Ramouldas and Elena (Dr.’s parents) along with the children (Rimgaudas, Vidas and Dolly) and Elena’s mother, to the United States in 1948. Rimgaudas was 11 years old at the time. I still have and use blankets and table cloths Elena made for me. I know my parents are very proud of the generous and caring life Rimgaudas and his family have lived. Our condolences and prayers are with all of you at this time of sadness. May he now share eternal life with his and my parents in heaven.

The loss of someone so close is difficult to bear. We share your grief.

Another wonderful man has left us and I know that you will have comfort with memories.
