Always enjoyed our good natured battering about University of Kentucky vs the Heels or the Deacons of Wake Forest. A blessing to our community for his training of family practice residents. Good natured great guy. Dr Cliff Berger

My deepest sympathies to Sherry and the family for your loss.

- Patti Peebles, Savannah, GA

Ron and I were truly blessed for the friendship and being neighbors with Mike and Sherry for the previous 9 years. Mike’s tenacious mowing of his yard every other day gave us a quiet chuckle. Mike loved his historic cars and used to rotate driving them every weekend. Mike was meticulous regarding most every facet of his life spending each day to the fullest until his illness curtailed most activities. May God wrap his arms around Sherry and their children and may Mike rest in peace.

I worked with Dr Leblang at Family Medicine Residency Program, Memorial Medical Center. He was a very caring physician and teacher. My prayers go out to his family. God Bless.

As the former director of the Memorial Health Family Medicine Residency Program I was closely associated with Dr. LeBlang from early 1985 until my retirement in 2001. I knew Mike as a fine person and a good physician. He worked hard to help educate and graduate a large group of residents who then went into practice to serve the people of Georgia. I am saddened by his passing and send my condolences to his family. Keith E. Ellis, M.D.

My condolences to the family. I had the honor of working with Dr. Leblang for 5 years at Memorial Family Practice. He was a very compassionate and caring physician. I pray you find comfort in knowing he was well loved and a dedicated compassionate doctor. I was honored to know him!

Sherry, we were so sorry to hear Mike was so ill. Ron enjoyed working with Mike and talking North Carolina basketball with him. Ron graduated from his rival team, North Carolina State. Mike was so thoughtful giving Ron some North Carolina State memorabilia. Ron was able to visit him in the hospital and talked with him about basketball and baseball. My memories of Mike were the years he and you helped us host the incoming medical students in August. Mike loved the low country boil we always served often pitching in to help prepare it. Mike was a very thoughtful person and a pleasure to be around. He will be missed by the Mercer faculty and students.

- Ron and Janet Garner, Savannah, Georgia

I am sorry to read of Dr. Leblang’s death. He and I worked alongside each other teaching and evaluating the medical students’ bedside skills. And we shared a love of travel. He will be missed in the medical education community

Mike was a great guy to know in High School in jGreensboro and a smart, fun person with whom to be to be friends. So sorry for his loss.

I am sorry for such a a late entry but I was notified only today. Dr. Leblang was my favorite attending physician. He was always supportive and nurturing as a teacher and friend. So often we take our teachers, mentors and friends for granted. We expect that they will always be there. Over the years I have treasured his guidance in helping me to make the big decisions in my career and now I know that the telephone will not be answered and I will not hear his voice again. I want his family to know how much I (and many other residents, students and physicians) will miss him and how much we've appreciated his family for sharing him with us. God Bless - Shaun
