I would like to send my sincerely condolence to the family and friends of Dr. Withers. Dr. Withers has been wonderful to me since my childhood,he basically was the only Dentist I had known up into my adulthood. I owe so much to him, I would hardly speak, much less smile without having my hand covering my mouth. Dr Withers always complimented me and encouraged me to believe in myself. After years of delay, I had complete dental work done at the hands of Dr Withers. I am forever indebted to him......I will always remember him and he will remain dear to my heart because he was the one who brought me back my smile. Again, I am sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Alecia Legge

We want to express our deepest sympathy in the death of your father.We only met your father once when he attended my Mother's funeral(Virginia Aten)in June 2002.It was so thoughtful of him to come to Point Pleasant for the funeral and to Beale Chapel at Apple Grove for the grave side service.My father was Edwin W. Aten who was the son of Edna, a sister to your grandfather.
Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you.

Felt more comfortable there.

He was a fine man and provided a great service to the people of Barboursville. He will be missed by many, even those not living in Barboursville. I pray Charlotte finds peace with this fact.
