Condolence From: The Berry Family
Condolence: We are so very saddened by the passing of Dr. Lon. He was the Doctor for both of my children since their birth. We finally had to stop going to him since they are now 25 and 19. He was the most caring, compassionate Doctor I ever encountered. I always knew if we had a problem he would somehow squeeze us in. He was also the most honest and always shared his opinion. The babies of the world are better for having been treated by Dr. Lon!

Condolence From: Pam Koblentz Shlissel
Condolence: I am so saddened to hear this shocking news. My boys ( now men) have been treated by Dr. Lon for 21 years. What a gentle bright man who was so devoted to his patients. Even when the boys got older he helped them via text, phone and email with any issue they had. Even available on weekends. We always had a running joke when I walked into his office, always calling me by my maiden name and never forgot that I ran a trucking company. There aren't many single practioners left in this day and age...Gone much too soon. My condolences to his family and staff that have been there as long as I can remember.

Condolence From: Ruth Wuzniak, RN
Condolence: I have known Rich for many years, since before he set up his own practice. I was fortunate enough to work with him for about a year. I always admired his compassion, kindness, and calm mannered way. I am very saddened by his loss. Please accept my most sincere condolences.

Condolence From: Jackie
Condolence: "Dear friends , I go but do not weep... I've lived my life so full and deep. Throughout my life I gave my best. I earned my keep. I've earned my rest.
I never tried to be great or grand . I only tried to be a helping hand. If I helped in a team or helped on my own ... it was more then repaid by good family and friends I have known. And if I went the extra mile I did it with pleasure . It was all worthwhile.
If I brightened your path, then let it be a small contribution to my loved ones from me.
Now sadly I leave you... and must travel alone through a mystic veil to the unknown ....with such beautiful memories that forever will be the way I'll hope you'll remember me." Author unknown
Rest easy on that mountain my friend... rest easy now. You are in good company there. Til we meet again my friend ... the memories were great and so many laughs ...watch over us
Jackie
