Not sure what to say?

Who could forget Dr. Krill? I was his patient from the time I was born. At my pre kindergarten school physical he asked me if he could go to school with me. I told him he was too big (tall). He squatted down to my eye level and said, "Can I go now?". My response was, "No, you are too stupid" - and what I was trying to say that he was "stooped". He knew what I meant, but mom was horrified! He cared for my sisters and I - even coming to the house. My neighbor kids were his patients as...

Dr. Krill was the best Dr. in the world to my family. You couldn't find any better.
My husband had gone to Dr. Krill when he was a little boy. One time my husband had a high fever that would not stop. Dr. Krill after an examination found he had a splinter in his hand that caused all the problem. Once removed fever was gone.
Years later, we married and had children. My first daughter had a high fever that spiked a 105 degrees. Dr. wanted to see her right now. It took him 1/2 hr....

I was blessed to have known & worked for Dr.Krill the two & one half years.(1955-58)I treasure the knowledge & faith I learned from him.He set example of a "GOOD CHRISTIAN".I will never forget when we had office hours,then dinner & back to office for the polio mass shots.It was very important to get that in. When the time came that Jim & I were to have our pre-marital blood work done, he was the Dr. to do it for us.He said to me "are you sure you want to marry this man? He's a wimp. Get the...

God bless your wonderful Dad. We know that he is in heaven! We just want to make sure you all know how blessed we were and what a great privilege it was to work for your Dad for so many years. It was truly our pleasure.
God bless you all,

I was blessed to have Dr. Krill as my uncle. We took our children to him and the office was never empty; many times there were lines along the hallway outside his office with children and adults sitting on the floor waiting to see Uncle Carl.

He was an unpretentious individual and there were no boundaries to his service for any and all children.

His deep faith was ever apparent. His madonnas that he cut from wood and painted (well into his nineties) may be simple...

Good Dr. Krill,
God Bless you! as so many of us parents know, you were the absolute
"Best," no question about it. Most
people may not know how you would
sit in a hospital room overnight
out of concern for a little one who
needed you. I remember the time you
came to our house 7:30 in the morning unannounced because you were concerned for our youngest son, who just a few months old and
having a problem with his Tonsils.
(One of many...

To the Family of Dear Dr. Krill: I also worked for the good doctor right out of high school in 1951. What a wonderful experience it was to see how comfortable he made everyone feel even when they were there because of their child's illness. As you know, he was also the world's biggest tease. He would make fun of me when I became squeamish over certain procedures, expecially when one day I had to hold onto a little boy during a circumcision. I have a wonderful picture to remember him by and...
