Message: My dear Dr. Rykiel. I am so overwhelmed to hear of your passing. I just spoke to you a few days earlier and had an office visit 7 days ago. You were your usual intelligent, kind and wonderful counselor to me. You were my wonderful Internist for over 20 years. When I was really troubled about my health you always made me feel safe. I truly believe there are angels on earth. I believe Dr. Rykiel was and is one. I am so happy that once I told him this before he died. You are so missed by all of us. I loved your paintings and sorry I never read your poetry.

Message: I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your Dad. I will miss seeing him at work. You now have a special angel looking over you now. Mary Rae and Noelle Schillinger (Sunico)
