My sympathy to John's family. I worked with John at UMKC. I often talked to him about difficult cases and he was always open to listening and teaching. He had a heart of gold and would take patients at all times who were hurting. I often thanked him for his generosity for serving those who were poor and in pain. I can hear Jesus saying to him, "Whatever you did for the least of these you did for me." What a great husband and father you all had. I will greatly miss him. +Blessings

Dr. Bellome was a very personably educator who was involved in the shaping of a great many young dentists and Oral & Maxillofacial surgeons. He will be greatly missed, particularly that smile of his.
