On May 28th and September 24th, 1995 different groups of descendents of William Carl and Mary Heiden met to share their family memories. The conversations were recorded and later written transcripts were made. Below are excerpts which relate to this person or topic..

Pictured is what was called a cassette tape back in pre-digital times.
 

Ralph Heiden - Did any of you get to go to the dentist when you were young?

Helma (Heiden) Nickel - We went to Dr. Benham in Dundee.

Mildred (Roggerman) Heiden - Boy, did we! He would be working on you and the farther you would slouch down in the seat, the harder he’d come after you!

Wilma (Heiden) Bicking - I don’t ever remember going to the dentist when I was young.

Norma "Jeanie" Heiden - No, we didn’t go for the regular check ups or cleaning like they do now. We went if you had a toothache and needed a tooth pulled.

Mildred (Roggerman) Heiden - Ronnie is now going to Benham’s grandson who is a dentist too over in Petersburg.

Over the years, we have also received written memories and remembrances about this person or topic from various family members.
