Dr.Chirtea, she listen with her heart to you. My mom thought of her as one of hers. They would talk about their family and show pictures of them. When my mom needed her she always had time for her. She will be missed by so many. Prayers to the family. Ada Whitley and family

I’m so sorry for the loss of your loved one.
God views death as an enemy. (1 Corinthians 15:26)
And, he is eager to conquer this enemy death, and to resurrect our loved ones. ( Job 14:14,15)
At that time period, death will be no more. (Rev. 21:4)
I hope this comforts you and your family.

She was my podiatrist when I had fractures in my feet.
She was so pleasant and cheerful – a delightful doctor!
What a sad loss.
Dr. Chirtea was my podiatrist from the time we moved to Virginia Beach 16 years ago. She was always such an excellent practitioner. She was as gentle as possible when she treated you. She was very personable, and we often talked about my family and hers. She was so proud of her kids. She sent me to her husband’s shoe store, and I bought many pairs of shoes there over the years till it closed. I will not only miss her, but so many others will as well. My deepest sympathy to her family. The Lord gave you a loving wife and Mother.
