Dr. Poole's son, Terrance is a good friend with my son, David Anderson Hooker; they graduated from Morehouse College together. Terrance was nominated by me and later served on the board of Summerbridge Cincinnati for many years. Terrance was our dentist while we lived in Cincinnati.
Dr. Poole was a revered community servant leader. He left a lasting legacy in Cincinnati.

Dear Mrs Poole and Family,
Marge and I were deeply sorrowful to learn of Dr. Poole's passing. We have been out town at the Cleveland Clinic and will miss the funeral. It is important for you to know how important our relationship was with both you and Dr. Poole. As we look back on our lives ,Dr. Poole was one of the most important person's God gave us..
Dr. Poole gave me a chance to stay active in nursing home administration and he helped Marge obtain her license. Dr.Poole helped me earn my PhD. at the Union Institute and University. It was Dr.Poole with Dr. Chuck Sells and Dr. John Henderson that helped me achieve one of life's goals. Dr. Poole was always available for advice and encouragement. For that I will always be grateful. We have kept Dr. Poole in our daily prayers of thanksgiving because he was such a blessing to know. We will truly miss him.
God Bless you and the children,
Marge and John Rogers
