Dear Patients and Friends,
It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Barbara Jerman, the beloved mother of Dr. Mark Jerman and wife of Luther “Steve” Jerman, who founded Jerman Family Dentistry.
Barbara was a remarkable woman whose warmth, strength, humor, and hospitality touched everyone around her. She was incredibly proud of both her husband’s legacy in establishing the practice and of Dr. Jerman’s dedication to continuing that tradition of caring for patients and the community.
Many of you may remember Barbara’s friendly spirit and genuine love for the people who walked through our doors. She truly adored the staff, patients, and extended family of the office, and she always made others feel welcomed and valued.
While our hearts are saddened by this loss, we are grateful for the love, laughter, and lasting memories she leaves behind. We know many of you have shared in the Jerman family’s journey over the years, and we appreciate your thoughts, prayers, and kindness during this difficult time.
With gratitude,
Dr. Mark Jerman and the Jerman Family Dentistry Team
