Condolence: I worked for Dr. Springgate in the early '70s when he was with Drs. Graf and Morrill. It was one of the best jobs I ever had as he made the office a place of empathy and joy. He had such caring for his patients and his staff and also brought such a sense of humor and lightheartedness to a job that was not always easy and he also encouraged my own learning and professional development. It was clear how important his family and friends were to him and how much they enriched his life. My condolences.

Condolence: Sorry to see the Doc go. I have alot of great memories back in the old hockey periods. One of the best is a trip to Houghton. Very cold but fun Doc loved watching his boys play and participating with a hochey team that was held together with his dedication and love. He was a great joy to be around.

Condolence: I worked in Dr. Springgate's medical office for 20+ years. The employee experience was interesting, informative and fun! He was always kind, patient and fair, ready to listen and comment if asked. I've missed knowing what the Springgate progeny was up to. I'm so sorry that you are currently sad. I am too. Susan, David, Nancy, Steve and Scott - you have my sincere sympathy.
