I just heard of Dr. Bartley's passing today. I am deeply saddened with your loss. He was a great physician. He cared for his patients. I will always remember how he tried to get me to be a Jaguar fan like him but I was always a loyal Dolphin fan:) I missed seeing him in the halls of St. Vincent's. My deepest sympathy for you and your family. He will be truly missed.

Dear Kim and family, My deepest condolences to all of you regarding the death of Don, your husband, dad, friend. I met Don at Lindsay and Aaron's wedding and immediately felt the depth of his spirit--his longing to live and love and his love for his family. Kim, Aaron states that you are back in life living and active. What a big loss--you've been losing Don for some time and that grief has been steadily expressing for a while. I send you a special hug and prayers. My deepest bow to all of you as you hold the holes in your heart that Don left AND his spirit still lives in you. Love, Rev. Julia Jarvis

I have missed seeing Dr. Bartley at work the last few years, but am glad he was able to spend the time with his family. He had a way of striking fear in the hearts of nurses, but only if the nurse had missed something. His focus was always on what was best for his patients and he had high expectations of all the nurses caring for his patients. My prayers are with the family, you were blessed with a good husband and father.

I will always remember working with Dr. Bartley while I was the UR nurse on 5 Center, SVMC. Unique in his ways but always cared deeply for his patients. I will never forget the day he came into my late husbands hospital room and said "I only know one person with a name like yours. Hello Ila." He was very kind and caring for my husband. He could be hard on the nursing staff but not one of us would have turned his help down had we been ill. God Speed. ILa Pandegirot, RN

Dr. Bartley was an awesome physician and I will always remember him from CCU at SVMC. He was so brilliant and his insight on the care of his patients was amazing. I will miss him as a fellow jazz fan. Whenever I go to a Fourplay concert, I will think of him and watching his joy at the concerts. He was a fan of Bob James. praying for his family and friends.

Dear Kim and family,
Please accept my heartfelt condolences to you all at this very sad time. I was Leah's third grade teacher at Hendricks Day School - many years ago - but I always remember the "special" families. Also, Dr. Bartley treated my husband a few years back when he was a very sick patient at St. Vincent's. So sorry for your loss. May God Bless You all.

We were neighbors and friends growing up, schoolmates and even played in a band together as kids. We were roommates his first year of medical school and my 2nd year of law school.He will be missed by all who knew and loved him!

Don and I grew up from Hendricks Elementary thru Bolles. We used to spend the night at each others house as kids and enjoyed playing football and baseball in the neighborhood park as I lived on Alhambra Drive and he lived on Cordova. We lost touch after high school but I have fond memories of my childhood as we were good friends.I remember he was a much better golfer than me at Beauclerc Country Club, where we also played golf together as friends. My deepest sympathy to the Bartley family.

Kim and family, my deepest sympathy to you all. Don was a wonderful man. Everyone will miss him dearly. Whenever I think of him I always think of the two of you twirling about on the dance floor at the OB/GYN Thesis Day Banquet. That is one of my fondest memories. You and your family will be in my prayers.
