Guestbook

  1. I am sorry to read the news on Dr. Dorsch’s passing. He was my favorite professor at USC and I think of him and his lessons often. I had met him again later on at the church for an Alzheimer’s presentation and shared memories of our loved ones who were affected. May he sleep well knowing he made a difference.

  2. CandleImageI am deeply saddened to hear of your loss. John was an amazing person, and I am blessed to have known him and witness the love he had for his family. My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time.
