Dear Sharon and family. I am so very sorry to hear of Dr. Scully's passing. I have known him since he first started taking care of my dad in the early 60's, and then later my mother.

I know your wonderful memories of your father will help you through this sad and difficult time.

Dear Dr. Sharon Harig,
My mother and I wanted to express our deepest sympathy in the loss of your father. I didn't know your dad, but knowing you, I feel as though I did. I know how proud he must have been having his daughter follow in his footsteps in every way. May his memory be eternal.
Sincerely,
Elaine Hayes

Please accept my sincere condolences and prayers. Our paths crossed over many years from my Mom (Marguerite McMahon Ihnat) working as a young nurse at Gary Mercy Hospital with Dr. Scully when he was starting his medical career. Then it was my turn. I have Dr. Scully to thank for teaching me so much , including how to read an EKG, while working as a young nurse in CVU, ER, ICU and CCU in Gary and then in ICCU in Hobart. A fond memory is that of caring for his friend Edward Flannery on the 2nd floor in Hobart as a new grad. Thank you, Dr. Scully, for everything. May God grant him eternal rest and give you, Mrs. Scully, Sharon, and your entire family comfort and consolation.

As a new grad working in ICU, Dr. Scully taught me so much and was always quizzing me. He helped make me the nurse I am today. I will never forget how he loved spending time teaching nurses in the ICU. I feel very blessed simply having the opportunity to know and work with him. He will be missed by all who knew him. My prayers are with Dr. Harig and all of family during this difficult time. One thing is for sure, he is making heaven a better place.

To the Scully family,
Please accept our condolences at this time of loss of a truly great man. He was the example of what a physician should be. He was dedicated, compassionate and enthusiastic in his practice of medicine. He always treated his patients as family members or friends. As an instructor he was demanding, hoping to instill his constant desire to learn. He once said that it was unfair that a person could not bequeath knowledge and judgement. He did his best to bend this rule. I will cherish the memories of working with him during my residency for the rest of my life.

I remember countless times my late father spoke of how much he trusted and respected Dr. Scully. What greater honor can there be than to have the faith of others placed in hands of one man? May Dr. Scully forever rest in peace, and may those he left behind remember the example he set.

My condolences to the Scully family. He was the doctor of choice by my wife back in 1950 and I also had him for a short while at that time but since have retired and moved to Florida. It is hard to find a doctor like Dr Scully in your lifetime so again, condolences to the family and I thank Dr Scully for being our doctor at that time period in life.

Although I retired from IU School of Medicine almost a decade ago, I still vividly recall the support and cooperation Dr. Scully provided to the Northwest Center from the very beginning in 1972 until his retirement. I also had the privilege of working with Tom at the very beginning of his medical career. My sympathy to the entire family. May your wonderful memories help sustain you through this loss felt by so many others.

I worked in the EKG Department for many years, and Dr. Scully was the nicest and most down to earth man I worked with. He always treated the nurses, technicians and volunteers with respect and I used to love to watch him interact with his patients. He will surely be missed.
