DEAR KARI & DIANNA, I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE AND PRIVELEDGE OF BEING A PATIENT OF YOUR FATHER'S FOR TH IRTY FIVE YEARS. HE WAS OUR COMPANIES DOCTOR FOR OUR MANAGEMENT TEAM, UNTIL THE FACTORY WAS TRANSFERRED TO SALT LAKE. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO REMAIN HERE, SO THAT MY FAMILY (WIFE AND FOUR KIDS) COULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HAVING HIM TAKE CARE OF US. HE WAS THE MOST EMPATHETIC, CARING AND SYMPATHETIC PERSON I HAVE EVER KNOWN. IT WAS VERY SAD TO WATCH HIS DECLINE THIS PAST YEAR. I SAW HIM IN DR K'S OFFICE JUST TWO WEEKS BEFORE HE PASSED AS HE HAD SENT MY WIFE TO SEE DR. K FOR A LOW HEMOGLOBEN COUNT AND WE WERE THERE AT THE SAME TIME. HIS SPIRITS WERE HIGH, BUT I COULD TELL THAT HE KNEW THAT THE END WAS NEAR. WE HUGGED EACH OTHER AS HE WENT IN TO GET HIS CHEMOTHEROPY. MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES. SINCERELY, J DAVEY
