LARRY ESSEMBER......ONE OF THE GOOD GUYS......

Dr. Larry Essember had a front page story about his recent retirement as a Pediatrician after 55 years in the Salem Evening News 10/16/2009........sometimes when a nice article similar to this is written you hold your breathe.......due to the general public and the comments that follow by persons who hide their identity.............Knowing Dr. Larry like I do I really was not concerned since his compassion and concern for people practically "bursts " out of his being.........

Let's look at a few comments that followed the story.......

"This guy is one of the best pediatricians ever.....They don't make them like this anymore"

"It is so nice to read an article which focuses on the life of such an influential

and positive person.Talk about making a difference for so many people and children........."

The most personal,professional and caring Doctor I have ever known.Thank you Doctor Essember for giving my child the best care he could possibly have."

"A class act and a good guy,and a pretty good skier "

I don't have to add anything except.....God Bless you and your beautiful Wife Carol.......
