Not sure what to say?

Adrian was my friend in Detroit, in 1985-1986, while he was interning at Henry Ford Hospital, I was a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Adrian was a very kind soul and one of my best friends.

He had these satin white dress shirts that I really liked. I told him so one day. He literally took the one he was wearing, and gave it to me.
I kept that shirt until it was rags.

He lived with us missionaries for a short time. He would go out...

DEAR ADRAIN GALAN
BILLY DON KYLE WAS YOUR UNDER YOUR CARE IN I.C.U. WHILE HIS BODY WAITED FOR HEAVEN'S GATES TO OPEN. I KNOW YOUR HEART AND YOUR SPIRIT IS PURE....AFTER ONLY 4 DAYS I "KNOW" YOU ARE A GOOD MAN.

FOR ALL YOUR LOVED ONES, I GREEVE,
FOR ALL YOUR LOSS, I CRY,
IT'S SO HARD TO SAY GOODBYE TO SOMEONE I HAD HOPED TO KNOW.

TELL BILLY YOUR"TURKEY STORY". ASK HIM IF HIS WIFE CAN "SMOOKE A TURKEY".????

YOU WILL...

Your family is in my prayers

As he was to many others Dr. Galan was my neurologist too. When I had problems with my MS his favorite saying was "Don't worry I will fix it." He always did just that. He made you feel better by just talking with him. His confident walk, his incredible wit and ever present smile will be missed greatly. He has gone to a better place, but will forever be remembered here by those of us who knew him and loved him.

Working with Dr. Galan was always fascinating. There was never a time that he couldn't make you laugh, even if it meant stealing your bag and hiding it. He was deeply loved and will be greatly missed!

Dr. Galan was my neurologist. He was very a very "spirited" man. On the days I was scheduled to see him and I was feeling upset, he would try his hardest to make me feel better. He has now gone to be with our Heavenly Father!! He will be missed greatfully. God Bless You!!

DR. GALAN AND I WORKED TOGETHER AT THE EPILEPSY UNIT AT HERMANN HOSP IN 199O THRU 1993. THERE WAS NOT A DAY THAT WENT BY THAT HE DIDN'T MAKE ME LAUGH, HE WAS A GREAT PERSON AND FRIEND. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER HIM. VICTORIA PEREZ.

I worked with Dr. Galan in the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit at Hermannn Hospital. He was an outstanding person and doctor. All of the patients and of course the employees loved working with him. He was always joking with everyone and at the same time taking care of everyone. He called the EMU to refer patients and sometimes just to say Hi. He will be missed!!!!
