  7. We were saddened to hear of my Brother Charles passing. Our entire family was privileged to see both Charles and Annis at our 50th Wedding Anniversary party last May. We had a wonderful time, and took some great pictures we are sharing with Annis and family. Charles left a beautiful, memorable legacy. We will miss him. Our love to Annis and her beautfiul children and grandchildren.

  8. I was Dr. Fusaris’ resident in 1972-73 at Fairfield Hills. He was a great chief of the Dental Service and a fabulous mentor who was instrumental in developing my dental career. After all these years, I still aspire to be his peer. Though I had not seen him in many years, we always exchanged cards and notes at Christmas and New Years. The news of his passing came as a shock and leaves me with an empty feeling. He was a great man.
