William Edwin Loftis M.D.

Although I have not seen Ed in over forty years, and have been living outside the US for over 25 years, he has been frequently on my mind lately so I decided to reach out for a too belated thank you for all his kindness so many years ago. That is how I am seeing only now his obituary. I am so sad that I am too late for Ed to read this. I should introduce myself. I was a first year resident the year Ed was Chief Resident in Radiology at MCG. I can not begin to relate how helpful and kind he...

I am sorry about Ed's passing. I was in his medical school class.

Sorry for your loss may there be comfort in knowing that god cares for you. 1 peter5 : 6&7

Ed and I were fellow members in the Eastern Radiological Society, and also played golf several times at the Augusta CC as well as at Chanticleer in Greenville SC. Although I have not seen him recently, he remained a good friend, and I find myself telling Ed Loftis stories frequently. Great guy! Eccentric is the best one word description for Ed.I'll miss him!

I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Loftis at Doctors Hospital in Augusta from 2002-2008. He was not only a colleague but he was my friend. I am saddened by his passing and I pray your family finds peace with all of this. One of the best... Dr. Loftis, truly a good man.

I'm so sorry to hear of Dr Loftis. I worked for him in x-ray at Athens General back in 1979. He was a great boss. My sympathies to the family.

Jan and Family,

I was deeply saddened to learn of Ed's Passing. I guess I am the last regular surviving member of the Doctor's Hospital Breakfast Club. We all enjoyed Ed's droll wit and his encyclopedic knowledge of Dixie History and UGA athletics. I trust that his storied pickup truck will be placed in good hands. Ed was truly a good fellow. 'When comes such another?' God bless and keep you. I trust the old renovated homeplace will give you some comfort during these times.
