Tributes
"To Rose - I've only known you and your husband for a brief time as an employee of Quincy Medical Group, but I wanted to express what a joy you are each time you visit the clinic. You always have a smile on your face and are very gracious and so polite to our staff. I'm very sorry that your husband has passed but please know that even the "small stuff"(such as a smile or "thank you") makes a difference in others' lives. We were better for having known him and he won't soon be forgotten. May the blessings be."
