Read MoreI was a patient of Dr Bashinsky when I was a wee toddler...from 1960 - 1970 I still remember his kind demeanour and putting me and my brother at ease when getting boosters! I remember Lucy the reception lady as well,!

Dr Leo was my pediatrician from baby to college. He was also my husband's. Even though I am 54, I can remember his office so well.....Lucy, the Norman Rockwell picture of the boy getting a shot...everything about it. And Lord knows I'm not sure what my Mom would have done without him coming by our house on probably many occasions with his little black bag to check on either me or my younger sister.
A great man, and the very best of doctors......who was also a good friend of my...

To The Bashinsky Family:
Dr. Bashinksy was my Pediatrician to me and my siblings, Marcia and Charles. I felt so honored he came to our house when we all contracted the flu.
I am 50 yrs old now. I have been a Critical Care Nurse for 23 yrs and in Grad school pursing my NP in Palliative Care. Dr.B. was a great influence in my life. He was the epitome of strength, intelligence and compassion for his patients. I will always treasure having him in my life. My prayers are with all of you...

I remember Dr. Leo coming to our house when I was sick. He was too strong for me to resist and held me down while giving me a huge shot. I not sure why I love him for that, but I certainly do.
Thank you Dr. Leo.

Dr. Leo cared for me when I was a very young child, sick with asthma. He made house calls and the minute I saw him pull up in front of my house, I knew everything was going to be all right. When my children were born, Dr. Leo was there and brought them to me for my first look. I remember him bringing my new-born 6-pound daughter to me. She was practically swallowed up in that huge hand. Dr. Leo will be missed, but today, I believe there are a lot of kids in Heaven who are rejoicing.

Dr. Leo cared for my three daughters from birth, 1947, 1951, 1956 and gave me confidence to be a mother. He was always there with compassion, understanding and good advise. He was a true family doctor and friend.

TO THE BASHINSKY FAMILY: MY THOUGHTS & PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU. I NEVER HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO MEET DR. LEO, BUT ROBERT WAS MY DAUGHTER'S FIRST PEDIATRICIAN. HE IS A GREAT DOCTOR & I KNOW HIS COMPASSION FOR HIS PATIENTS CAME FROM A GREAT TEACHER, HIS DAD. REMEMBER THE GOOD TIMES YOU SHARED TOGETHER & KNOW HE'S IN A BETTER PLACE NOW. SOMEDAY YOU'LL MEET AGAIN. GOD BE WITH YOU & COMFORT YOU IN THE DAYS AHEAD.
