Rufus U. Kilpatrick, Jr.

Christi, Rusty, Linda and family.....so sorry to hear this sad news. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers. Much love to you all.

Patrick and Sunny West

My prayers are with the Kilpatrick family. I worked with Rufus , affectionately known to many of the younger pharmacist as, RU-DOG! Ru-dog was one of the kindest men I ever met, not to mention one of the most giving as well. He often tried to send those of us with children home early and would tell us to "go on home, this old man has this covered, your children need you and you need them!" He had a humorous note for every situation, even the hardest of them. He will so be missed. I will always remember him as the beautiful person he was! God surely has a great soldier in Heaven with Him now!

I was a Pike fraternity brother of Rufus' at Lamar. I have been trying to run him down for years. This was not how I wanted to find him. He was such a great guy. I remember he had a '65 red Mustang, got it the first year Ford produced them. We tripled dated to the beach in it. How crowded was that! Haven't seen him since a party in the early 70's. I know he loved his family. He had a great heart. My deepest sympathies to all of you who were close to him. I know he will be missed.

Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. I worked for Rulfus many many years ago when he had his pharmacy in Nederland. I know he will be missed by many.
God Bless,

I have not seen Rufus for many years. He was a good friend and way to young to depart us. Best wishes to his family.

I had the pleasure of knowing Rufus for along time. It has been awhile since I have talked to him but he was one of the greatest guys I have ever known. I will never forget his kindness, humor and all the help he gave me whenever I needed it. I know he will be missed.

You are in our thoughts and prayers. We will miss you Rufus.

I am terribly sorry for your loss. Rufus will be terribly missed.

Rufus worked for me when he first graduated from pharmacy school. He and I were best of friends. I will miss him. I wish the best for the family members. Sorry for your loss.

Rufus was a good friend and enjoyable colleague. I worked many times at Wal-Mart with Rufus and always looked forward to working with him. He was always an equal partner and was always willing to do what was necessary. He
was knowledgeable and helpful to patients. I always enjoyed my conversations with Rufus about work and his cats and his family. He always asked about my daughter Emily whom he had worked with and is now in pharmacy school. Rufus spent his life helping others with the skills he had learned. Rufus saw humor in everyday situations and I am pleased to say he was a good friend and valuable pharmacist.

Christi and family...I was saddened to of the loss of your dad this morning. I have enjoyed "reuniting" with you the last couple of years through our boys in sports...my thought and prayers are with you and your family. God bless

Christi, and everyone....
I'm so sorry for your loss. I have to teach tonight but I will get to the funeral home as soon as I can. And I will see you tomorrow.

My deepest sympathy and prayers are with you.

So glad we had a chance to visit with Rufus and you a few months ago. We hate that he was taken from you so suddenly. We will see you soon.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

With all my love.

It was a sad, sad day yesterday to hear that Rufus had passed on. I worked with him on and off at Eckerd and Wal-mart, and he was the best! I learned a lot from him, and he set an awesome example of a great pharmacist. I cannot say enough good about him. He had a fantastic sense of humor, always making us laugh. I know a lot of people that knew him, and he will be greatly missed!
