Dear Jill Manzie and Family, I wanted to take the time to write to you today, to express my sympathy for the loss of your husband Peter. Like you, my life has been touched by the untimely death of a loved one. My friends and family were a great comfort, but what helped me to cope was reflecting on the Bible's hope of seeing my loved one again, in what the Bible calls the Resurrection Hope". When all our dear friends and family that have passed away, will be brought back to life. Here are just a couple of scriptures in the Bible which describe this hope. Isaiah 25:8 "He (God) will actually swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will certainly wipe the tears from all faces".... John 5:28 "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice (the voice of Jesus) and come out". I sincerely wish all the best for you and your family at this time. Kind Regards, One of Jehovah's Witnesses"

Maddest dog ever to live!

It was with sadness that I came upon Dr Manzie's obituary. I was a patient during his semi-retirement some years ago and I felt compelled to leave a short message. As a doctor I found him extremely patient, supportive and geniunely understanding; qualities that are sometimes lacking in his profession today. He was a great help to me at the time, and I am still enjoying the benefits of having seen him. I would like to extend my sympathies to his family and friends.
