1971, Dr. Singer served as project director and program coordinator for Kern 
View Hospital and Community Health Center. Dr. Singer began his own clinical 
psychology practice in 1953 in Pennsylvania and continued private practice 
since moving to Kern County until October of 2001 when he reluctantly retired 
due to health reasons. He leaves to cherish his memory his beloved wife, 
Carol; daughters, Susan Singer, Sonnet Singer, Elizabeth Settlemire and her 
husband, Michael; and his granddaughter, Savannah. Others that were special in 
his life are Jennifer Ramirez, Joan Abercrombie, Faye Sayre, Karen
