We would like to send our sincere condolences to your family at this time. Dr.Pillay was our doctor for 42yrs and he was not only a fantastic doctor but an amazing person! Dr.Pillay was my doctor from the time I was 6 months old and he also was my doctor when my son was born. He was there for me when I had shingles during my pregnancy and he went above and beyond to help me. He was there through much illness in our family and he was a great strength to us. Our family loved Dr.Pillay very dearly and are so grateful for the time we had with him.

I hope it's of some comfort.
Nemi will be missed terribly
Love, maura
What is family? They were the people who claimed you. In good, in bad, in parts or in whole, they were the ones who showed up, who stayed in there, regardless. It wasn't just about blood relations or shared chromosomes, but something wider, bigger. We had many families over time. Our family of origin, the family we created, and the groups you moved through while all of this was happening: friends, lovers, sometimes even strangers. None of them perfect, and we couldn't expect them to be. You can't make any one person your world. The trick was to take what each could give you and build your world from it.”

My sincere condolences to all of you. One of the first "imported" physicians, I worked with Nemi at West Lincoln. He was a great role model for interdisciplinary Team work and always demonstrated great respect for other health disciplines. We would learn more about these characteristics through his deep caring and concern for his patients. He was an important committed physician who took on a number of clinical roles, thereby supporting something much bigger than himself. I am very sad to hear of Dr. Pillay's death and extend my deepest sympathy at this time.

My deepest and heartfelt condolences to Dr. Pillay''s family. I first met Dr. Pillay when he was my in-laws family Dr. In Beamsville. I have since had the pleasure of seeing him as he would do his rounds on our unit at the SCG. He was one of the most kind, gentle compassionate people I have known. Always a smile on his face, candy or gum in his pocket for the nurses. He always called you by name and remembered previous things we had chatted about. I will truly miss that smile. The world has lost a remarkable man. May you rest in peace Dr. Pillay

I had the privilege of calling on Dr. Pillay for 15 years as a pharmaceutical rep. He always asked about my life, always showed genuine care and concern for all matters of a personal nature.
8 years ago my father was diagnosed with a Glioblastoma and it was Dr. Pillay who tended to him during many of his hospital stays. He managed to calm me during that difficult time. He was truly one in a million and will be sadly missed by all. My deepest condolences to all of you for your loss of such a bright light in this life of ours.

I was shocked and saddened to read about the passing of Dr. Pillay. I had the privilege to work with him at the St.Catharines General. He was so kind, gentle and caring to his patients and the staff. In his role, he was often seeing patient's for the first time. He would put them at ease, and alleviate any anxiety's they might have with his calming, respectful nature.
He never forgot details about the staff either; always asking "How's Mom?" when he knew my Mother was ill. He had taken notice of me sitting at her hospital bedside and always asked about her.
I will miss not seeing him in the halls with his great smile and laugh and that ever-ready piece of gum!
My sincerest condolences to his Family.
Thank you for sharing him with his NHS Family.

I had the great pleasure of working with Dr. Pillay at SCGH for many years. He was always a wonderful delight. Ever ready with his pack of gum. I am sure he could have bought shares in the company. Could spot him a mile away with his beautiful white hair and his lab coat.
Always dedicated. Spoke always of his family with pride and we loved to discuss grandbabies.
He will always be remembered with a smile; he was loved and will be greatly missed.
My thoughts are with you at this sad time; he has left us a legacy of being a wonderful human being. An old-school gentleman.
Sincerely Sharron Steward
