Our hearts go out to the Eldredge family at this sad time. Losing both parents so close is very difficult. Knowing they are together again is something to behold.
Dr. Eldredge cared for our babies, now adults, for many years. Leaving his practice when they became teens was very difficult and we hung on as long as we could.
He always showed them the most gentle, kind and meaningful care anyone could. Always taking the extra time to hold them and get them to laugh. He never made first time parents feel uncomfortable with our endless concerns about our babies.
We will never forget this wonderful man who was with us from the start of our children's lives. We will forever be grateful for finding him.
May he and his "Mary" rest in everlasting peace among the angels.
We are sure that she, like him, had a huge heart of kindness for others.
Most Sincerely
Anna Lee and Terry Ross
East Rochester, NY

I met Gregg and Lee in 1965 when I was a summer extern at Genesee Hospital in Rochester, NY, and Gregg was just starting in practice. He and Lee were both friendly and caring. I joined him in practice with Rufus Bynum in 1969 when I came out of the Air Force. We were in practice together until he retired in the 90's. He was an inspiration to me. After I retired in 2001, I enjoyed visiting Gregg and Lee on Conesus Lake when I was in Rochester. We are very sorry for their passing.

Dear Eldredge family, It is with great sadness that we learned today that you lost both parents within 6 mos.
Dr. Eldredge was our son's pediatrician when my husband and I were older new parents. Our son had trouble nursing so Dr.Eldredge tried a few things, then helped me realize the "trauma" on both of us wasn't good. He became our hero. My husband had no experience with babies but as he saw the doctor toss our son around, he gained confidence handling the baby. We had 11 superb years of care and counsel until his retirement. He must have been a fabulous father.
Gratefully, The McMahon's

Dear Susan, Charlie and Kathy

Please accept my deepest sympathy for the losses of both your parents this year. I personally know and feel you emotions at this time. While I myself, feel that there is no real closure, in time you will feel a different kind of closeness to each of them. That will give you a little comfort as time goes on.

Please feel free to contact me at my e-mail address (above) and I will send you my phone number. I maybe can fill in some family memories.

Most Sincerely

Rachael
