Kermit E. Krantz

As the new year comes upon us, I reflect back on the many memories I have. Some of the greatest moments in my life were the nearly 20 years I worked at KU. Especially those 15 years with OB/GYN.
One of my fondest memories was that of Kermit coming into the OR while I was having my youngest child. Telling them to get my c/section done so I could get back to work. We all laughed and laughed.
Never a greater man was he. He will forever be in my heart, prayers and memories.

I just learned of Kermit's passing. He took care of me since I was 18. I worked for him, cared and respected him most of my life! Such a wonderful man. My condolences to his family. He will be greatly missed!!

My condolences and sympathies to the family on your loss of such a dynamic man. May God comfort your in your time of sorrow.

The medical community has lost the physical presence of a leader. His memory and lessons will live on in everyone who met him. Be at peace, Dr. Krantz, be at peace.

Doris and family: I just learned of Kermit's death last night (8/14/2007). To put into words his contribution to my life would be difficult, if not impossible. His kindness, his openess, his honesty, his insight, his love of literature, and, especially, his understanding of women was remarkable. Suffice it to say that he will always hold a special place in my heart and in the hearts of my family, whose lives he also touched. God bless and comfort you, and please know that you and Kermit...

My deepest sympathies go out to the Krantz family. He was truly an amazing man. May God comfort you during this time.

Mrs. Krantz - I just found out about Dr. Krantz. He delivered my daughter on October 12, 1982 - the same day one of your grandchildren was born. He was everything to me during my pregancy...I can't begin to tell you. A more special man was never born. Both of you will be in my thoughts and prayers. He will be missed by so many...
