Condolences

My father, Sam Spatter, was a friend and patient of Mort's. I also became a patient when I was young. He was always very kind and gentle. My deepest condolences on behalf of my dad (v'shalom) and myself. Sue Spatter Breitenbach

I had the pleasure of working with your Dad for 30+ years. He was the kindest, compassionate, and intelligent person that I ever knew. We went through many good times and some hard times but he always had a smile and knew the right thing to say. Also, he was the best Dentist around. I will miss him.

So very sorry to learn of your dad's passing. He was a wonderful man and a great dentist. Last of the golf foursome. My deepest sympathy. Gail Sachs
