Doc leaves behind his beloved wife, Liz, his children, Elizabeth Alley, Tim McKay and Stephanie Marino, his stepson Jeff Wendeborn, and his grandchildren, Crystal Alley, Ashley Alley, Whitney McKay, Jess McKay, Sarah Dean and Will Wendeborn. Doc also leaves behind several younger men that he mentored along the way who will miss him as a father including Steve Bargas and Greg Kimsey speaking here today.

Thank you to all of the Englewood and Littleton Firemen who donated blood and platelets to replace the enormous number of blood products Doc was given. There is no greater gift.

I would personally like to thank a number of people who faithfully supported me during Doc's lengthy hospital stay. My son, Jeff Wendeborn, Kathy Fitting, Doc's daughters Elizabeth and Stephanie, my mother Elizabeth Robertson, her brother and sister-in-law, Gene and Judy Kincaid, Sandy Berryman, Ann Bridgewater, Kim and Steve Bargas, Chuck and Maggie Curtis, Virginia Chapman, Judy Wells, Ursula Getrost, Terri Huebner, Ann and Bill Schneidewind, Denny and JoAn Nall, Bonnie Wasson, Nancy and Bob Einarsen, and Greg Kimsey.
