Remembering Dr. Phil Aaron - from Bea Taylor Beatrice Taylor writes: "This day has been an emotion filled day for me and I am sure for many more friends of Dr. Phil Aaron. I had the privilege of working for the Aaron family (Dr. Oris, Dr. Jann and Dr. Phil) over a span of 50 years. Dr. Phil was the most dedicated Doctor I have ever known. He had an awesome concern for patients and was truly their servant. He was always very supportive of patients, physically, spiritually and financially. I had the utmost respect for him and always felt Adair County was fortunate to have him. He always treated his employees well and always very generously. The death of Dr. Phil Aaron has ended an era of time when doctors served patients and put their needs before their own. Rest in peace Dr. Phil Aaron--u have earned it. May ur memory last for many years in Adair Co.Related - Phillip Reeves (Phil) Aaron, M.D. 70, Adair Co., KY (1945-2016) 2016-08-12 22:50:10 | Comments | Printable version
