Dr. Denmark,
You delivered me and were my pediatrician in Atlanta. Thank you for all you have done. You not only took care of me but also my siblings and cousins. My family were ministers, The Klaudt Indian Family, and you always were very gracious in treating us and charging little to nothing. Thank you for all the wise words and treatment you shared.

Janice and I remember happy Sunday lunches with the Denmarks at the Druid Hills club. She often commented on how she believed in drinking a glass of hot water every morning and eating red meat often. Apart from good genetics she has a healthy outlook on life with Christ at the center. Blessings for another record year!

She was THE doctor for Northeast Atlanta, Dekalb County. She would sing to me and point to the squirrels outside during vaccinations or shots to get my mind off of the needle. She nursed my brother through whooping cough during the early stages of development for the vaccine.
Amazing person. The book "Because Dr. Denmark Said So" is a fixture in my house.
