From B. Bassett 25th January 2008

Please let me extend my condolences to your family. Dr. Rose was my doctor for several years, and I am heartbroken that I will no longer have him in my life. My father died in October, and although he was a Kaiser patient, your father was so helpful to me, going over his medications, suggesting treatments - I couldn't have gotten through it without his help. I KNOW I will never be able to replace Dr. Rose - I'm not even sure I'll try. Believe me, I know your grief. Please know that your father was an extraordinary man, and there will not be the likes of him again. With best regards, B. Bassett
