Death of Jane Salato rekindled fond memories of the family A single act while dove hunting with the kind doctor, left an indelible memory, which the then six year old boy only fully understood years later. 'Yes, what special memories are made by great people like Dr. Salato,' he writes today By Terry Partin Memories of days gone by have certainly been reborn with the loss of Jane Salato. The Salato family daily earned and deserved the respect of our community. I reflect on the days of my youth and the dependence that our community placed on the doctors who cared for our families. I remember Dr. Salato as the doctor who concocted a liquid vitamin in his office for my brother--a homemade, but effective vitamin that our family lovingly referred to as Dr. Salato's Iron Tonic. He removed a rock from forehead following daring bicycle ride Then there was the time he removed rock from my forehead following a daring bicycle ride and the resulting injury that required 13 stitches to repair. Dr.Salato, in addition to to being a wonderful physician, was a wonderful person, devoted to his family, his patients and his community. I remember his love for fishing and always appreciated his service to sportsmen across the commonwealth as he so faithfully served on the Kentucky Fish and Wildlife Commission. One memory stands out above the rest Perhaps this memory will provide some insight of how special Dr. Salato was to me: Early in my youth I discovered hunters on a neighboring farm, hunting doves. Ready to participate, I joined in the hunt with my trusty Daisy BB gun. I will say that I was a good marksman at that early age. The hunters happened to be Dr. Salato and his son, Mike. I took up a position a Dr. Salato's side and, moments later, a dove came in giving me an opportunity to fire a copper plated B B. Instantly the dove folded and fell in front of me. Somewhat conscious that a shotgun was fired, I dropped the Daisy, ran to pick up my dove and returned to place it at my feet as Dr.Salato had been doing. Shortly after Dr. Salato had congratulated me on the remarkable shot we heard my mother calling me home to supper. I will never forget how proud I was as a six year old when I had the opportunity to give my bird to Dr. Salato, as I had so often seen my dad do following a hunting trip with friends. Only a few short years later I realized the impossibility of taking a dove with a Daisy rifle.Yes, what special memories are made by great people like Dr. Salato.
