James H. Gilfillan Jr.

To the family of Jim,
I had the pleasure and honor of working with Jim for many years at Passavant Hospital. I still work there as a nurse and regret not being able to see him when he was a patient there recently. Jim 's sense of humor and gentle calm nature will be my favorite memories of him and of course he often spoke in french phrases too although I never did understand what he was trying to tell me !!I remember how much he loved telling me about the great buckwheat pancakes he...

Deepest Sympathy from the entire Gutshall Family

We are sorry for your loss.
You are in our prayers.

I enjoyed having him as one of my teachers. He was a good teacher to me. Sorry for your loss

I had Mr. Gilfillan for English in 9th or 10th grade and remember him so fondly. what a gentle person he was, very patient. I also knew your son and thought often how hard it must have been for him to teach my class. It was a good thing. God Bless.

Sorry to hear the news. Ruth (MOW) expresses our sorrow. We will not be there as we are in Florida for several more weeks.

Dear Mrs. Gilfillan & Family-
Your husband was my 9th grade French teacher in 1985-1986. I have had many teachers since then, but I will always remember Mr. Gilfillan as one of my favorites. He was gentle, kind and patient. I am the first to admit that my friends and I were a silly bunch of giggling girls. Most teachers lost their cool with us eventually, but Mr. Gilfillan would simply look around the room in mock wonder and ask "Qui parle, parle, parle?" We would smile to ourselves...

I WAS A STUDENT OF YOUR HUSBANDS SEVERAL YEARS AGO. HE WAS A WONDERFUL MAN. SOMEONE WHO YOU RECALL ALL OF YOUR LIFE. MAY GOD GRANT YOU STRENGTH AND PEACE THROUGH YOUR TIME OF NEED. I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.
