Francis James Riley

Dr. Frank Riley was my Uncle. We knew him well until his sister (our mother) passed away in 1984. Then sadly, there was no more contact between me/my siblings and Dr. Riley. May he rest in peace.

Dr .Riley delivered my premature baby boy in March 1975.It was a high risk pregnancy, I was placed on bed rest at 6 months. Every Saturday morning for 1 month, Dr. Riley came from Longmeadow to East Forest Park Springfield to check on me. He made those "house calls" out of caring and concern. My baby was born at 7 months .I always felt I was in excellent hands. Before leaving my house, he would take a moment to play with my 3 year old son and have quick cup of coffee . He was such a...

Ken my deepest condolences to you and the family. Thinking of you during these tough times.

Very sorry to hear of Dr. Riley's passing, but it sounds like he lived a long, full and happy life. Dr. Riley delivered our three sons, the last one in May of 1980. He also delivered my youngest sister in 1963. He was a wonderful doctor, and I was so fortunate to be his patient! I can still hear his deep voice and remember that he always sported bowties! May he rest in peace, and may God give comfort to all his loved ones.

I was very fortunate to have a doctor of this caliber who delivered both of my children in the 1960's and was a comforting caretaker during several miscarriages. RIP Dr Riley - I was so grateful for your kindness and your professionalism!

Dr. Riley was awesome in his presence and support with the arrival of our first child in 1977. We knew that in his hands all would be good. A remarkable man both personally and professionally. Prayers and condolences. Dan & Pat Lynch Very special LHS memories of Nancy, Mary Jane and Peter, take care.

I was in a group when I had my first daughter. I saw every doctor in the group so each would "know my case." I ended up with a doctor who joined the group the day before my delivery! That´s when I switched to Dr. Riley. What a wonderful compassionate, competent doctor! He made you feel like you were his only patient ...and he listened to his patients!! What a great loss! Rest In Peace, Dr. Riley. You are missed!

Peter, Ken & Family, My condolences for your loss of your father. Remember the good times you shared together. Peace Dave Appleman Mystic, CT

I met Frank in 1960 as a pharmaceutical rep and we developed a close personal relationship over the years. Frank was a man of great integrity and a gentleman in the purest definition of the word. I sincerely hope that his family is comforted by the fact that his was a life well lived and ourcommunity is poorer without him.
