In March of 1969, Dr Breen, my OB/GYN, found
what he thought was breast cancer and
encouraged me to go immediately to a cancer specialist. He knew my son, Jeff,
was a senior at St Paul's then, and I would postpone it. Therefore at his prodding, I followed his advice. Results-I had Stage 1 breast cancer which was treatable. I believe God used him to spare my life. My condolences to his family.

I externed at Dr. Breen's office and then I worked for him for a short time after, and he was always so patient and kind to me as I was learning how a Medical Assitant worked, and how an MA worked in his office. He always went out of his way to make sure that I learned something almost everyday, and I'm so greatful for that! He was an all around good guy who taught me not only how things worked in his office, but also kindness and compassion that I will take with me as I start my career as an MA. He was a wonderful person who will be missed. Prayers to Dr. Breen's family.

Dear Family of Dr. Wayne Breen, words cannot discribe the jolting news of his death to myself, my mother and my daughter. We were All a patient of his. I have known
him for 30 years as a patient and a nurse. At 19 to present he said i was like one of his
kids. He was always part of our family. He brought both of my children into the world and helped me and my daughter through several surgeries over the years. He will not be forgotten by so many people in our communities. We will miss him deeply for being the best OB/GYN in the area, and lucky enough to have had him at our sides, at such crucial times. Please, rest in peace, for we do not know where to go from here but will always remember you....a kind, caring, listener, handholder, respectful man and friend. To his children, our thoughts and hearts are with you, your pain and grief we wish we could take for you.

Respectfully Yours,

Jennifer, Linda, and Shelby

Dr. Breen was my favorite doctor. He was more than a doctor, he was a counselor. I was having a stressful time in my life and his words of encouragement really helped me get through the stress. He always was there for me and really cared and listened. I will always remember him as being such a compassionate doctor who cared for his patients. I will always remember that he brought my two miracle kids into this world. He will be greatly missed by all who loved him as more than just a doctor but a friend. My heart goes out to his family. May you find comfort and peace and know that we will never forget all the good he did for so many. Now an angel has his wings.

Dr. Breen, You are definitely one of a kind and a very tough man to say goodbye to. It is hard to believe you are gone. As sad and hard as it is for all of us to deal with, I know your family and co-workers (family) have it a million times harder. So many of us wish we could just go back in time..... Losing you has been such a tremendous loss for so many people. I hope you knew how much you were and are still loved and respected. I know you were so proud of all of your children (you were always happy talking about them) and you did a wonderful job as a dad. We are all lucky to have known such an awesome man. I thank you so much for everything you have done for everyone. Your wisdom and love were infinite. We have all learned so much from you. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family for peace and healing.
There a lady named Kimberly Jo Graham who started a Facebook page in your honor. The name of the page is "R.I.P. Dr. Wayne E. Breen, MD." There are so many wonderful stories about you there as well. It is bringing the community together to share the person you were to them. There is so much love and comfort there. Everyone connecting, sharing and helping each other in the grieving process.
You will forever be loved and missed.

There are no words to express the shock and sadness I am feeling about the death of not only my doctor, but my friend. At our last visit I asked him when he planned to retire and he said never. He said "to retire you have to have a job and I haven't worked a day in my life. What I do I do because I love it. I'll never stop taking care of my patients".

My heart goes out to Diana, Bridget, Patrick, Sean, Ryan, Devin, and Aiden. He loved his family so much. We never had a visit that he didn't talk about each one of you with so much pride, joy and love. He had a constant twinkle in his eye, but when he spoke of his children that twinkle shined so bright.
God bless you and keep you. May His light shine upon you. Rest in peace Dr. Breen. You will truly be missed.
