Not sure what to say?

Campbell was my best friend when we both lived in Tillicoultry and attended Dollar Academy Preparatory School. We had loads of fun playing among the army vehicles waiting for the invasion of Normandy and hidden under the trees leading to the MacIntosh Estate. I am so sorry to learn of his death but what a life. I thought he would do well but had no idea just how well. I have a great photo of the two of us together ca. 1945.

Campbell was my best friend as a boy in Tillicoultry where we both attended the Dollar Academy primary school. I was so sorry to have learned of his death but glad he had a rich life and achieved so much. My condolences to his family.

I was very fortunate to have Dr. Stalker as my son's doctor. My son was 3 years old and was having severe abdominal pain with an extremely high white blood count. We took him to the nearest hospital, Johnston-Willis. They didn't have pediatric services but Dr. Stalker didn't want to risk transferring him so arranged for him to remain at JW. He also was hesitant to operate on such a young child because my son wasn't showing all of the classic symptoms of an appendicitis. With great concern...

We are so sorry for the loss of Dr. Stalker. Much too early in his wonderful life. Many thoughts and prayers to all his loved ones. I am a nurse who worked with him at the hospital many years ago.

I am so sad to hear that Cam is no longer with us. I had the privilege of touring with Cam, Ursula, his wife and fellow surgeons and their spouses in his beloved Scotland, we had such fun!I will always remember him with great fondness, he was extremely kind and had a great sense of humour. Special thoughts are with Ursula and family.

My deepest sympathies to Mrs Stalker and the family. I can remember when Dr. Stalker started with Surgical Associates. I was a new nurse and had just started to work at Chippenham Hospital. He will be fondly remembered and truly missed.

I will always be grateful to Dr. Stalker for saving my life. When I was a nursing student , I became ill with a very serious gall bladder. He often teased me that gall bladder surgery is not supposed to take almost 5 hours, because of me- the whole team almost missed lunch. I was able to return to school and became a better nurse, all because of this wonderful man. He was there to give me comfort and to reassure my family that I would be okay, he kept his word, he always had compaasion that...

I was fortunate enough to have met Dr Stalker 30 yrs ago to perform some electrical work and in recent years. He was indeed one of the kindest persons along with Mrs Stalker that I have ever met.My sincere condolences to the family.

Hi Stephen,
please accept my condolences
