The lighting of a Memorial Candle not only provides a gesture of sympathy and support to the immediate family during their time of need but also provides the gift of extending the Book of Memories for future generations.

eternally grateful hygienist

I worked with Dr. Z decades ago at numerous Dental Care Ones.  On one particular day at the Dixie Highway office, the management started treatment on an obviously drunken patient.  He was to have partial dentures seated until they realized that he had not paid for them.  They removed them from his mouth and that's when the fun began.  He became belligerent so to appease him , they decided to put him in MY chair as prophys are covered by insurance.  I seated myself next to this patient, only to have him threaten me that if I hurt him, he would have to choice but to jump and he couldn't guarantee that his elbow wouldn't hit me in my obviously pregnant stomach.  I asked him to repeat what he had just said and he did so.  I asked the very large DDS to say something, then the office manager.  No one would remove this man who had threatened my unborn child.  Dr. Z stepped in and took control.  He asked the inebriated patient if he had indeed threatened me.  He then very professionally asked the man to get up, and not to return unless he came back sober.  He also explained there would NEVER be anymore threats tolerated from him.  Dr. Z then asked the man if he understood.  The drunken patient said yes, got up, and left the office.  Dr. Z earned not only my respect (more actually as I already respected him) and my undying gratitude for protecting me and my child.
