Donna S McClure lit a candle

“Please accept my heartfelt sympathies for your loss. Dr. Greenspan had such a kind and gentle way with people. He treated my aging mother with genuine respect and dignity, even as her memory was failing. He spoke with her about dentistry and dental hygiene from her years teaching Dental Hygiene at ODU, making her feel seen, valued, and worthy. His compassion was rare, and our family is grateful to have known him.”
