Not sure what to say?

In February of 1983, Dr Pillow delivered my daughter at Glenview Hospital. He was our family doctor many more years after that.
When I heard he had passed, I was truly heart broken.
I pray for the family to remember this amazing man like all of us who are former patients
God Bless all the Pillow clan!
See you Doc, in heaven

Dr Pillow delivered both of my daughters by cecearian. I962 and 1963. The old Glenview hospital.

An amazing man, so kind, giving, helpful. So glad I knew him. Still think and speak of him often.

Dad - so many sides and all of them amazing! Doctor, Dad, Hunter, Flat Fixer, Stranger Helper, Mom Lover - I will carry you everywhere with me!

My family started seeing Dr. Pillow in 1955. He treated my Grandmother, Parents, my sister and myself. He delivered my three girls, removed all their tonsils, and repaired an umbilical hernia. He did not have to refer you to a specialist. He was the specialist, professionally and in his personal life! He will be missed!

Ol' Doc Pillow, as we lovingly referred to him at our house, was the first doctor I remember going to as a child. He performed my appendectomy and exactly 2 months later delivered my daughter. I joked with him (during c-section) about getting all he wanted out of there cause he wasn't gonna get in there again. His answer was to ask the attendant for some marbles to leave behind so he could go get them later. :) He was a great doctor and man. He will be missed by so many. Rest in Peace Sir!!!

How lucky our family was all those years ago to move to NRH and meet the Pillows; a family full of warmth, love and fun. It was only natural that Dr. Pillow would be our physician as well. He was the consumate example of what a physician should be, and we are all the better for it.

As a kid growing up in Richland Hills, I spent many hours at the Pillow home.David Jr. and I grew up together and I have many great memories of Dr. Pillow and his entire family. Dr. Pillow will be greatly missed by the medical and local community. He was truly a wonderful man. My condolences to his entire family….

I'm sure Jesus had a big smile on His face when David entered Heaven but it is sad news for us here. David
was my doctor, my children's doctor, my friend. Time has passed so quickly and the many times I have planned to call you Annabel just slipped away.
What a great friend he was to my family and to the special needs children David helped us with at Camp Hope. I now live in Georgia, married to a retired pastor and I can't believe that I am now 83 years old.
Thank you for sharing...
