Sherry, I was surprised and saddened to learn of Jeff's passing. I remember you both so well from the time our oldest children were babies together. He was delightful and fun, and I can imagine that these last years were difficult for you all. Know that Al and I send our most sincere condolences for your loss.

Hello,
I read your husband’s obituary, and I rang a bell. I grew up by Rock Creek Lake, between Newton and Grinnell. We had a farm couple who were our neighbors, by the name of Westercamp. It seems that the husband passed, and the wife, whose name might have been Helen, lived close by to us. Mrs. Westercamp raised lots and lots of gladiolas. I think we might have bought eggs from them. She could talk your leg off, as I remember. Could these possibly be your husband, Jeff)# grandparents? I am interested and curious.
I am so very sorry for your loss. Your husband sounded like a great person.
Sincerely,
Jo Heimann-Schreck, Manchester, Iowa

I didn’t know Dr. Jeff but read every word of the well-written and interesting obituary.
What a wonderful life he led serving others and leaning into his faith in our Lord.

I am saddened to learn of Dr. Westercamp's passing. I was a patient of his for many years at Lindale Dental Care on 1st Avenue. He was knowledgeable, kind and gentle. His obituary was a wonderful tribute to him. I am sorry for what he must have endured as a result of his diagnoses and for what your family likely endured as well. May your good memories bring you comfort and peace as you reflect on a life that was obviously well lived and a man who was well loved.

I am so sorry to hear of Dr. Westercamp's passing. He was my dentist for many years. I never dreaded a visit to the dentist, as he always made me smile and laugh and entertain me with his loving updates about his wife and kids. May he rest in peace. He will be missed by all who knew him.

Sherry and family, my heart goes out to you at this time and going forward. I worked with Dr. Jeff in the early 80's when he started at Gentle Dental. He was the best. He is the reason I went on after graduation to the dental assistant program at Kirkwood. He was such a kind soul; eager to teach and share and loved to talk about his family. He will be missed for sure.
Sending hugs to you all.

Dr. Westercamp was my dentist from the time he was located in Lindale Mall to the beautiful building that now exists on 1st Ave. When Dr. Westercamp retired I realized there was no better dentist on the planet than him. We haven’t been patients of Lindale Dental for several years now, but Dr. Westercamp is fondly remembered for not only the amazing dental work he had done for me since I was a teen, but also for being such a kind and caring man. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. Please know that he touched so many people because of who he was as a dentist but also because he was such a good human.

My family is so sorry for your loss. We loved Dr Westercamp as our family dentist and to this day, Kate didn’t know she ever got a shot! And she had cavities. Evan had multiple baby teeth pulled and he was still never afraid of his dentist. What a great guy, RIP.

So sorry to hear about Jeff’s death. And my heartfelt condolences to his family. I was a patient of Jeff for many years. He was a blast to be around. Always had a story to share and a big smile to go with it. I always look forward to seeing him, I lost touch with him after he retired and miss him very much. I still go to Lindale Dental care and always ask how he was doing. God bless you, Jeffrey. I will miss you very much.

I worked at Lindale dental a few years ago. It was the best place I ever worked and Dr Westercamp was the most kind and gentle person to be associated with. My heart and prayers go out to the family and coworkers at the office.

Hi. I lost track of Jeff as he retired. I hated going to the dentist til I met Jeff....loved him. I remember being in the chair, and him smiling and looking out the window with a contemplating look. It was heartwarming as was he. So sorry to hear the news. He blessed many people..what a wonderful legacy! Bob and Kay Roof and family.
