I send my love to my long-time friend Joe (Jr.) and my sincere condolences to Dr. Whittle's dear wife, Margaret and to Stuart and Rob. I remember high school parties at the Whittle home and the many summer nights where friends and families gathered for a "paddle ball" challenge in the side yard. God bless you Joe-Bo, and thank you Dr. Joseph Purcivall Whittle for these fond memories.

Dr. Whittle became our family Doctor shortly after we moved to the Petersburg area in 1968. He provided excellent care and sound advice from then until his retirement. We appreciate the service that he provided to uis and offer our sincere condolences to his family.
