Dr. Dancil was my Dentist and friend. We use to talk about politics on my visits. Also, his dental is top notch up to date. The dentist of today can't compete. I relocated from the area and was getting ready to visit, and decided to look him up for an appointment and found this-wow! Deeply hurt and sorry for your loss. Thank you for having set this up. God Bless family.

Dr. Dancil was my dentist, he was such a kind and caring person, I have never seen this man with a frown on his face. He was always smiling, such a big smile and great personality, he is truly missed and will always be remembered.

Sorry to hear of Dr. Dancil's passing. He is truly missed. I could always "run it by" Dr. Dancil. No matter what the concern was. When in doubt, go ask your dentist.
