Dr. William Edward Whitley

It doesn't seem possible my doctor and friend has left us to grow old without him. I have reached Doc's age now and realize I would have been gone years ago had it not been for his keen observance and immediate task of doing a surgery on a cancerous melanoma on my back which was in the first stage. I can and will always be thankful for he allowed me to see two more grand children graduate from college. God bless you Doctor Whitley and to all of your loved ones.

A year has past and it seems like yesterday that I was in his office having my quarterly check up. This morning reminded me of one of many professional suggestions he gave me on diet for my diabetes. I dry fried two eggs and had a whole wheat slice of toast with glass of skin milk. This was one of many suggestions for diabetic foods that Dr Whitley gave me over the years. His personal and sensible suggestions will never be forgotten as long as I live. God bless you and your family.

Working for Dr. Whitley was always a positive experience in the office. I typed for him and he was always happy; he never lectured and seemed to understand people. He had a great personality as well as with his office Staff. I just heard of his passing and I am so deeply sorry. I will always remember this fine gentleman as one of the most decoratively positive doctors I have ever met.

My husband and I started seeing him when we moved to Blue Springs in 1977, when he was younger than our oldest child is now. We feel as though he helped raise our two. He became more than our doctor; he was our friend . . . family. It saddens us that we just now (1/26/18) learned of his passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

So sorry to hear of Dr Whitley's death. He got me thru 30 years as his patient. We had many interesting discussions. He will be greatly missed.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Dr Whitley,helped myself and family,many years,not only medically,he took time to talk about how your family was and any fatherly advice you needed,very loving man,I will miss him,always gave himself to others God Blessed us with his hands of love,

With sincere regards
William Shaw
