Bethlehem Ministry recently lost a member of our family, Dr. Gary Fleming. Gary was instrumental in the early days of Clinique Espérance et Vie, visiting Terrier Rouge alongside Berry Rice, treating patients under the shade of a tree before the clinic was up and running. The world felt a little kinder with Gary in it and his absence is felt by all who knew him. You can learn more about the life of Dr. Fleming by clicking on the link below.
