My deepest sympathies to Dr. Vlahos' family. He was my family's physician for years and was extraordinarily kind (and wonderfully funny) to us all.

Dr Mike was our physician beginning the late 60's. When we moved to Harpers Ferry we travelled back to Sterling for our medical care until he gave up his practice. We soon discovered No other Dr has been able to take his place-even to this day!!! Condolences to the Doctor's family.

August 22, 2015

To the Vlahos family, Chuck and I extend our deepest sympathy. We arrived home from vacation late last night, too late for me to attend the funeral services. Tollgate is a small community and the loss of a neighbor is felt by all. We will keep Michael and all of you in our prayers. Sincerely, Marie and Charles Murray
