William Rees

My name is Kerry Moore and I am alive today because of the great skill and finesse of Dr. William Rees. I was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in the pancreas, and the good doctor surgically removed it along with a potion of my pancreas, allowing me extra time with my family and in my career as a music educator. After a long, arduous 20-year battle with pancreatic cancer, it has now metastasized and spread throughout my body. How much time I have left on God´s green earth is unknown at...

A great man that is and will always be an inspiration to me in how he was able to show kindness and positivity in very difficult situations. I worked as his Physician Assistant and appreciated his skill and expertise in the operating room. He is deeply missed.

I worked with Dr. Rees at Salt Lake Clinic for four years and he was always the nicest doctor of all of them. He made time every day to say hello and when I left to go to college full time, he was so very kind and encouraging. Rest well, Dr. Rees.

I grew up with Bill Rees being one of my idols. He was one of my brothers teammates and friends in the Ensign 4th ward. We admired and loved the Rees family. Bill always had a kind word and encouraged me in life whenever we would bump into each other. May his family find peace and comfort in his wonderful life lived.

I have so many fond memories of Dr Rees in the ER at LDS Hospital. He was always kind and caring to the patients and staff in addition to being a great general and trauma surgeon. It was always a good thing to have Bill Rees as your on call surgeon.
He will be missed and I am sorry for your loss.

Our families go back so many years to WLA California..we enjoyed watching your family grow and Bill pursue his medical career then and as he has here. He was a wonderful father and physician..and Jana you have been a wonderful wife; mother and Captian of the support team.. We are so sorry for your families loss. We send our love at this time and wish we could be there but circumstances prevent us from attending.. We hope to see you soon, Love Dick and Shirley Brown

Dick and I send our love to your entire family at this time. We loved being a part of your family life in our ward and neighborhood in Cheviot Hills California and having all our young children spend time together.
We have always admired Bill and all his achievements and accomplishments.He has been a great example to so many. And Jana, you have been a wonderful wife and partner to Bill and a outstanding example to all of us of strength and surviving.
We wish we could be with you...

I was so sorry to hear of the passing of Dr. Reese. When I was a brand-new scrub tech at LDS OR, I always knew I could count on his kindness, and quiet sense of humor to get me through the new, and stressful cases I had the pleasure of being involved with. He was always so patient with the residents and med students, the consummate professional. I take comfort in knowing he is reunited with Michael, free of pain and earthly encumbrances. Prayers to the Rees family.
