Dr. Krainin was charming,witty and always left me with a kind word of advice and praise. His memory will live on in the community of Port Chester.

I was very sad to hear about the passing of Dr. Krainin. He was our family dentist for many years, my brother was one of his first patients. We all enjoyed his warm smile and his beautiful photographs that adorned the walls of the office. He will be greatly missed.

I was surprised and saddened to hear that Dr. Krainin had passed away this weekend. He was not only our family dentist, but a family friend. He made it to my father's funeral in January, and I know that he and my father had a mutual respect for each others' politics and sense of humor. I can only hope they're making each other laugh, somewhere. My heart goes out to the Krainin family. Ralph will be missed by many.

Dr. Krainin was my dentist since I was 2 years old. He was always so kind to me and my mother. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. His warmth and smile will certainly be missed.
