Dr H'Doubler was a kind man, and so intelligent. I will never forget him. He did my surgery in 1977. May he rest in peace.

I first met Doc H'Doubler 55 years ago as a child and have been friends with him every since. I was shinning shoes at the St. John's barber shop. What a wonderful person to all. I'm so lucky to have known such a great man.
