I am so sorry to hear of Doc's passing. I have many fond memories of him when we worked together at Biloxi Specialty Hospital many years ago. He was always such a good sport, and made me laugh everyday. I was one of his case managers and his patients loved him. Fly high old friend! Prayers for his family during this difficult time.

As you remember your love one, as God heals your broken hearts (Psalm 147:3), may your cherished memories continue to bring you peace, comfort, and strength to endure.

Sorry to hear of Dr. McAuliffe's passing. I would like to offer my sincere condolences to his family. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope. And, that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. In the days to come may you find comfort in that hope.

So very sorry to hear of the passing of my medical school classmate and friend. I will always remember the good times we shared while in school, you helped to make all the hard work bearable. The very first classmate I met, in 1978. My sincere condolences to Steve's friends and family. Glenn Gianini
