Gallery of Memoriams


This gallery contains obituaries, news stories and some photos of family, neighbors, friends and co-workers I have known during my life. May God bless their souls. We will never forget them and perhaps I can perpetuate memories of them by having these memoriams on the internet for many years to come.

The news articles and obituary for Dick Judy, long-time Aviation Director of Dade County, are at: https://pbase.com/donboyd/memories_aviation_dickjudy

And now it tears me to say RIP Don. Thanks for this amazing website
Don Boyd15-Sep-2015 14:45
Hi Gary, I never saw a doctor in the 50's and 60's except for Hialeah Hospital emergency room doctors for a broken arm and later a broken bone in my hand, but I do know your dad's name from comments left on other pages of this site, most likely in the Hialeah section. After I got out of the USCG in 1970 my doctor was Dr. James Farrell across from Hialeah Hospital and I saw him many times until he retired in the 1990's. I am more than willing to put a couple of photos of your dad in the Hialeah gallery where Hialeah kids who were your dad's patients can see them and make comments about your dad. I'll contact you by e-mail from OldMiamiMemories@gmail.com Thanks.

Don

Don, I happened upon your site and have found it amazing. I was raised in Hialeah and my father was a popular Doctor for most of the early populous. He had an office on East 4 Ave and 42nd Street, in the Dairy Queen strip plaza. Did you know Dr. Jack Roy, most everyone in the 50's and 60's on the East side did? I remember as a kid he treated many of the employees at Eastern Airlines and was one of the few doctors that made house calls. He passed away in 2012 at the age great ago of 99 and was still helping patients well into his 80's. If he is someone you might like to add to your page, let me know and I would be happy to send pictures, etc.

I wanted to mention that I was a good friend of Coach Mike Feduniak and was actually a student of his at Hialeah High School. I learned how to fly with his help, what a teacher and fine human being, not to mention a War Hero. We lost track when I moved to WPB in 2000's so I unfortunately missed the notice of his death, thank you for the great coverage as it was touching.

Thanks again for the great site Don, I will spend a lot of hours here.

Donald Joseph Buzzella died on May 7, 1959. His sister was in second grade at Immaculate Conception School. And her brother Paul Buzzella was in 6 grade. Theresa Buzzella never went back to school after her brother Donny died. So did she miss the First Communion Ceremonies at Immaculate in May of 1959.

Don, I appreciate your note back and understand completely. I really enjoy looking at all the wonderful history and places of Miami. I lived there from 1955 to 1981. Keep up the good work and God Bless you for all you do.
Don Boyd06-Jul-2010 14:40
Hi Lisa, I would love to but the gallery only has family, neighbors, friends and co-workers I have personally known during my lifetime and I regret that I didn't know your husband.

Don
Lisa Viaros Hoffman 05-Jul-2010 23:25
Don, this is beautiful - would it be possible to add my husband, MHS, Class of 1971, Bruce Clement Hoffman, February 5, 1953 - August, 15, 2000.
Don Boyd29-Sep-2009 01:30
Hey Alex, it was my pleasure and I will add more photos as I find them in the future. It was great to see you and talk with you last Thursday at Max's retirement.

Don - Debbie and I really appreciate the In Memoriam page that you created for Ron Gunther. I found so many of my friends and colleagues here and it brought back many fond memories. Thank you so much!
Don Boyd19-Mar-2009 06:53
Carol and Rachelle, thank you very much for your comments, I appreciate them.

Carol C 18-Mar-2009 21:09
Don, I can't tell you how much I enjoy the photo collections you have gathered. This memorial page is really lovely as well. I knew Bud Marquis when we both worked for the Game Commission back in the late 60s and didn't even realize he had passed away or that it had been so long since they did a story about him on our local television news.

Keep up the good work, you are much appreciated!

Rachelle S. F. 11-Feb-2009 06:16
This was a lovely thing to do for your friends. Thankyou for the memories of Fran Melfa. I knew her from Jr. high through high school and always wondered what happened to her as I did many people back before the Internet. Fran was a lovely person and I know she is dearly missed by all that knew her.
Don Boyd07-Jul-2008 01:22
Thanks Dick. You should put the name of deceased military man in your title so Google will pick it up for future searches on that name.

Don
Guest 06-Jul-2008 17:28
Don, what a lovely, thoughtful thing to do. It is truly inspirational. If you have a chance, please look at my Memorium photo. I don't know this young man or his family. I just happened to glance down as I was walking past this grave one Memorial Day at the Willamette National Cemetary in Portland, Oregon.

Don: I just want to thank you for your wonderful site and also for the "In Memoriam" section. You did a very nice spread on my wife, Fran Young, in which I am very grateful for. You are a great example of what the word Buddie means. Keep up the excellant work.
Don Boyd20-Feb-2008 17:20
Thanks for your comments, Geoff.

Don:

What an incredibly human thing you have done here for these people you have know.

Although I did not know these people, through your efforts you have shared a pice of their lives and contributions with us and given them some extended recognition that they would other-wise never had.
Don Boyd13-Sep-2007 17:18
Thank you Penelope. I wish more people would do this so deceased folks will show up in Google searches on their names and memories of them will go for a much longer time. Don
penelope pitstop01-Sep-2007 05:32
What a fantasic way to remember all of your loved ones by. Very original. I'm sure many people will appreciate the continued access to these memories for many years to come.

Kudos to you for doing this.
Guest 22-Jun-2007 05:01
Thank you Don for having this Gallery of Memoriams. I found here one of the most wonderful human being I have ever known...Vincent Lipetsky. Left a comment on his plague. Vincent and Phyllis they were my bosses, first at Kim Color Photo Lab and then at Coral Color Photo Lab. They were exceptional people!
Marjory Wetstein 14-Apr-2007 10:35

RIP friend and schoolmate.
Don Boyd11-Jan-2007 05:21
