Paul K. Raffer M.D.

Dr. Raffer hired me in the mid 1970´s as a sonographer; I was one of two people trained to do carotid studies with this "new" technology. He was so smart and kind to his patients. Condolences to Dr. Raffer´s family. I was speaking to a friend about that time today and decided to look him up. I´m sorry for your loss.

Dr. Raffer was my neurologist at Sharp. I was in a horrible car accident causing my neck to collapse requiring 3 discs to ultimately be removed. Paul was with me every step of the way. I learned of his own personal battle while he was treating me. I bought his book, and had him sign it for me. It made his day. It’s a moment that will always stick with me. May God rest his soul. He helped so many and now he is in the hands of God for eternity. Rest in peace Doc. Rest in peace.

After having recently found out about Dr.Raffer´s passing and his generously documented journey with cancer, I was reminded of having met Paul at our family´s Bonita Valley Tennis Club where he was an esteemed member for many years. It was always a pleasure to watch Paul´s spirited matches with his many friends out on the courts. I was also a beneficiary of Dr. Raffer´s vast medical treatment experience and compassionate care. He has blessed his family that he always talked about with so much...

Just found out about Paul's passing. You guys must be devastated from the back to back losses. I'm so sorry. I loved your parents and my love for Paul goes back to our childhoods. Please let me know when you have a date for the memorial services. Thank you, Michael Glenn ([email protected]).

So so sorry to read about Paul. Although I hadn´t seen him for some years, every memory of time with him is joyous and fun. Condolences to family- may you find comfort soon. Love.

Our deepest sympathies to the Raffer family. You have lost a mother, and now a father. We loved Donna and Paul, finding some comfort knowing they are together once again. May God give you the strength to heal your broken hearts. And may perpetual light shine upon them.

Paul was a good friend, with whom Danny Cepin and I played many ro7nds of tennis and golf. We also shared Rotary, with the Holiday choir and rehearsals in his home in Chula Vista, where Donna was always a graceful host. As a Dermatologist, I saw firsthand how aggressive his cancer was, how he battled it, and even a a celebration of life right before his successful bone marrow transplant that saved his life. Paul got a second lease on life and he enjoyed it immensely. He had a beautiful voice...
