Dr.
Pfefferle contributes a great deal of his personal time
helping children in countries all over the world. Since his
forced retirement, he has increased his travels and
activities now that he can't actually perform "hand's on"
dentistry. Dr. Pfefferle misses being able to do the
dentistry, but now derives a great deal of satisfaction from
not only planning trips, but in taking and teaching dental
students to do what he loved to do so much. "I was told that
God will never close a door without opening a window, and
all I can tell you, is that there are many, many windows in
God's house!"
