-OCTOBER 2017 NEWS FLASH FROM TCDS-

IN MEMORIAM: Our dental community is deeply saddened with the passing of another one of “our finest” Dr. James Michael Wise, who fought a heroic battle with lung cancer but succumbed to complications at the age of 64 on October 12^th. He was the nephew of Dr. Jim and Wanda Saddoris. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife Daphne Morgan Wise, their 2 sons Theodore Spencer Wise and James William Wise, and their families at this most difficult time.

“MANY THANKS” TO CARR HEALTHCARE REALTY AND DENTSPLY SIRONA ENDODONTICS - sponsors of our October 10^th evening meeting and featured speaker Dr. Jim Tinnin for an excellent program !!!!

WOW – what a great crowd of fun party-animals who showed up to enjoy great friends, tasty food, and participate in the “Chicken Dance” at Oktoberfest!!!! Thanks to all the dental offices that attended!!
