Ha! Him and Ruby! Cedar Street. He brought me into the world. Dr. Bump, I will never forget you. Best doctor I ever had!

When my family moved to Forest Grove I was around 5 years old. I can remember Dr. Bump to this day becoming our family's doctor. Since I was a Tom Boy I know that I saw him pretty regularly. My Dad and Mom really liked Dr. Bump and I remember him being a very caring doctor with a sense of humor. I am saddened to hear that he has gone to a much better place but know that the Lord must have called him home. My condolences to the family of Dr. Bump and know that there are many of us still...

So sorry for the loss of this wonderful Doctor and friend.. He was an honest and caring man. He delivered all five of our children back in the late fifties and sixties..We will greatly miss him..

I am sorry to hear the passing of Dr. Bump. He was our family Dr. for over 20 years. He was the only Dr. I had from the time I was born until I moved from home at 18. He even made house calls to my Grandpa! He was always such a caring and gentle Dr. and made us kids feel at ease. What a full life he lived. He actually is how I measured finding a Dr. for my own family. Thank you Dr. Bump for all you did for the community and families you cared for!

From my yard Dr. Bump because I know that you loved flowers.

Dr.Bump was our family doctor when I was about 5 yrs. old. We couldn't have asked for a better doctor. I am truly saddened to hear about his passing and my thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends, of which I am sure he had many. Dr. Bump was from the old school, always putting his patients first. I haven't seen him for many years, but I will miss him.

Dr. Bump took such good care of his employees & was the best employer I ever had. It was him that gave me such a love for rhododendrons. He gave me one that now has reached the rooftop of my house. I think of him often as I do yard work & especially at bloom time.
I will miss my good friend & boss.

Few there are in the world such as Forrest Bump. He once said to me "I would do anything for my patients" and he didn't have to tell me because I knew it from experience.
His good common sense and dedication to his patients is a priceless legacy to the community.
We credit him with saving our little girl 40 years ago and he always took an active interest in the lives of our kids.
We enjoyed many years of plant exchanges, book exchanges and wonderful friendship.
We are unable to...

My condolences to The Bump Family 1Pet.5:7 "Throw your anxiety upon God because he cares for you".

We have always considered Forrest a great friend. He had a wealth of knowledge regarding the genus Rhododendron. he was extremely generous with his plants and cuttings. We grow a number of plants thanks to his generosity. Forrest will be sorely missed by everyone interested in Rhododendrons.

Our condolences to all members of the Bump family.
