Celebrating Milestones at Park Avenue Dental Care: Beverly’s Retirement & Dr. Duffner’s 40th Anniversary
At Park Avenue Dental Care in Homewood, Illinois, the team recently came together to celebrate two extraordinary milestones that reflect decades of commitment, compassion, and community care. It was a day filled with smiles, laughter, and heartfelt memories as the practice honored both Beverly’s retirement and Dr. Gregory Duffner’s 40th anniversary of practicing dentistry at Park Avenue Dental Care.
For 46 years, Beverly has been a cornerstone of the practice, assisting Dr. Kreuz with unmatched skill, energy, and warmth. Her dedication to patient comfort and her ability to bring laughter to every appointment made her an essential part of the team and a familiar face to generations of patients. Her colleagues describe her as a light in the office, always ready with a smile, a story, or a kind word to put patients at ease. Although she will be dearly missed, her legacy of joy and professionalism will continue to inspire everyone she has worked with.
The day also marked an incredible milestone for Dr. Gregory Duffner, who celebrated 40 years of service at Park Avenue Dental Care. Dr. Duffner has built an outstanding reputation within the Homewood community for his gentle approach, clinical excellence, and genuine care for his patients. His decades of service reflect the practice’s commitment to providing personalized, high-quality dental care built on trust and long-term relationships.
The entire Park Avenue Dental Care family joined in to celebrate these achievements, sharing stories, laughter, and gratitude for the countless ways both Beverly and Dr. Duffner have shaped the practice. Events like these remind everyone that Park Avenue Dental Care is more than a dental office; it’s a family built on dedication, kindness, and a shared passion for helping others smile.
The team extends heartfelt congratulations to Beverly as she begins her well-deserved retirement and to Dr. Duffner for his remarkable career milestone.
