Dr. Lewis Blue
June 9th, will be our retiree luncheon. This year we have a few dentists that are no longer with us. They will be missed.
Dr. Lewis Blue was instrumental in assisting with the annual 'Old Timers" luncheon. Every year he would help me spread the word about our get together. It was obvious about how much he card for his dental friends, He truly helped hold the group together. When I interviewed him for an article back in 2022 he expressed the importance of volunteering for the society, “I would like for an officer or some other respected dentist to call a dentist friend who hasn’t been involved in leadership and ask them to get involved, similar to the way I was prodded many years ago.” He notified me shortly before he passed that was unable make it this year due to being hospice care. Just a few days later I was notified that he had passed.
Dr. G. Franklin Day spent a lot of time in the service of others. He was known for provided care to a lot of students who had dental issues without charging them. After retirement he taught at Lane Community College working with dental hygiene students. Outside of dentistry, he was very active in Kiwanis and his son's scout troop.
Dr. William B DeLage was
originally from Baton Rouge. He enjoyed hunting, fishing and Blues Music. He
also served in the military and was stationed at Fort Lewis and assisted
soldiers who were returning from Vietnam.
