My fondest memory of John was what a wonderful and kind person he was. I am an Orthodontist and arrived in North Miami Beach in 1959 with my brother, Malcolm, to open up a specialty practice of Orthodontics. We opened up about 3 blocks from John's office and he was a the first dentist that we introduced ourselves to. He greeted us with open arms and said he would gladly support us with referrals. And he did for the next many years until he retired and moved to Naples. I remember visiting with him many times over the years and enjoyed every visit. His patients became our patients and they all just loved Dr. Parent and so did we. It brings tears to my eyes just remembering him in the "old days".  God Bless You Dr. Parent, with Love, Dan Meister.
