  3. I extend my sympathy to his wife and daughter and family. Dr LaVenuta treated both myself and my husband for skin cancer on our face. He was very kind man and had a great sense of humor. He will surely be missed by many former patients and his family and friends.

  12. You don’t have clue who I am – just a patient from the late ’70’s who has fond memories of Dr. LaVenuta and getting shots in my ear drum. He was a very kind man with a great sense of humor. I love the image of him in his cap, head mirror, lab coat and the surgical shoe covers. I felt I was genuinely cared for and have always remembered that. Prayers for peace and strength for you all. Please remember the positive influence he was to so many.
