Doctor B. was a humble man who always did for others before himself. He was devoted to his wife, his family, his country, and his work. He was one of the kindest, most gentle-hearted men, yet still so strong in all he did. He was a dedicated caregiver for many decades and leaves behind many who will fondly remember his compassion. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
