I am so sorry for your loss, and my thoughts and prayers are with your family and friends. My mom, Betty Jones, was part of Meredith's walking group at one point in time. Perhaps she will be there to welcome him home. Sincere condolences.

I am very sorry for your loss. Dr. Saunders was a good friend of my dad's (Bill Cardamon). He was a great man and a great doc. He saved the sight in my right eye after a freak accident, so he was a hero to me. Please accept my sincere condolences.

My special condolences to the family and friends of a wonderful humanitarian, Dr. Meredith Saunders. As a fellow Rotarian and Jazz Club member we had many wonderful interactions where his great knowledge and zest for life shone forth. I will never forget his great good humor, friendship and racounteur skills.
May the good Lord bless you in the afterlife as he did in this life. It was an honor to know you.
