Tributes & Memories

I was out of the country for the past few years, so I only just now read about Dr. Crow. I just want you to know that he was the most caring and compassionate doctor I have ever known. I literally owe my life to him. While undergoing treatment by other doctors for a potentially fatal condition, Dr. Crow was the voice of hope and reason. He is the only doctor who wasn’t just going through the process-he truly cared, and it showed. He was such an amazing doctor, and an even better person and friend. I am so sorry for your loss. He will be greatly missed.

I moved to Nevada and my greatest sadness was leaving Dr Crow. He was the only intelligent caring Doctor I have seen in my 74 years of f medical torture. He would tell his students, we listen to Donnia she knows her body. And he helped me tremendously. I am heartbroken and devastated today to learn of his passing. I know his family must miss him tremendously because he was a most living and caring man. And always a smile always. He was a gift I will never forget. I am sorry he is not with those he loved so much.EDEQF

I can't believe it has been more than a year since you died.I miss you as a doctor and as a friend.You are so missed.

Renee Neel

I am so sorry for your loss, and the community's loss as well. He was a great doctor, but more importantly, he let you know that you mattered to him as a human being. When I moved from Sand Springs years ago, I took a long time to find a doctor to go to, and I still have never found one that can replace him. I also worked at the Colloege of Ostepathic Medicine, before it became part of OSU, and met him a few times there, giving back to the profession he loved. He will be missed by many more people than you will ever know.

I was stunned to hear of Murray's passing. I first became a patient of his nearly 15 years ago. He always reminded me of a good old country doctor that always had the time to make sure you understood everything that was going on. He was a compassion man that helped me thru the lost of my wife. I never felt like I was a name on a chart when I came to his office. Murray will never be replaced and his legacy will live on His family was very fortunate to have had just a fine man in their lives

My heart is broken. The light has gone out of my life. Murray was my love and my best friend. I can't imagine a world without him. He was a devoted, loving, caring husband. He loved his children and step-children, and was so proud of all of them. He adored all of his grandchildren. We all have an empty spot in our hearts that will never be filled. Dr. Crow was a dedicated pyhsician. He cared for all of his patients and was very worried about them while he was ill. Murray was loved and respected by everyone who knew him. We have lost a most amazing man!

Thoughts and prayers are with your family! Dr Crow, by far was the best most compassionate Dr I've ever dealt with my entire life. I've been with him since he took over Dr Russell's patients. He watched my 3 children grow into adults. He was a comforting person to some of my family members as they faced terminal illness. His death is a shock and he will be missed.

Cindy House

Doctor Crow, I met you when I was a little baby on the verge of dying. You were there for all my asthma issues and my injuries. You have been a guy that always lit up the room when the room was all dark. You've made it fun to go to the doctor, you have kept me healthy for 15 years of my life, always asking how football was.. You are a great doctor but more importantly, a great man. I will always miss you. - Payton Scott

My heart is broken to hear of his passing. I want the family to know how important he was to medical career. He was my preceptor and taught me most of the skills I use today in my practice. His practice made me fall in love with Family Practice. He is the sole reason I decided to become a family practitioner. I am praying for peace for his family and dear friends. So sorry to hear of your loss.

Monica Woodall D.O.

I am so sorry for your loss. Dr. Crow had been my physician since he started his practice in Sand Springs. He was the most compassionate, caring person and doctor you could possibly meet. He was such a comfort to me when I lost my husband, taking the time to explain many things about his illness and sudden death that I couldn't except at the time. My prayers to each of you that God will grant you the comfort you deserve in the days to come.

I'm so sorry for your family's loss. I was shocked and saddened by the news of his passing. He's been my Dr since I was in Jr and I'm now 41. I went through a lot medically and he was always there to lend an ear or get or figured out.

My experience with Murray is because I was, and am, good friends with Sandra. He was younger than us but always around when we were at their home. All of the family was wonderful and it was a happy place to be. I am so sorry for your loss and hope that your memories of him will help you to get through the days ahead.
