Dear Patients,
I am writing to inform you that after practicing dentistry in Rensselaer for forty-three years, I find it is time to retire . Serving as your dentist has been a great privilege , and the decision to retire was not an easy one . I have always loved dentistry and coming to work each day. I appreciate every one of you, and I thank you for entrusting me with your dental care.
It was very important to me to find the right dentist to take over the practice, and I am happy to say that I have found him. A graduate of Marquette Dental School in Wisconsin, Dr. Kevin Cash has practiced dentistry for a number of years, including in the United States Army. He is a native of Crown Point and a graduate of Culver Military Academy and Wabash College. I am confident that he will meet your dental needs with excellence, care , and professionalism.
I can’t say enough in praise of my fantastic staff, who truly care about our patients as well as about me and my family. I will greatly miss working with them and being a part of their daily lives. They are special women who will continue to assist you and work with you as effectively and compassionately as ever.
For a limited time I will be working in the office one day a week .
Please know that you have made my career fulfilling and enjoyable. You have certainly blessed me! May God in turn bless each of you and all your loved ones as well.
Sincerely,
Harley E. Houghton, D.D.S.
