"My brothers and I were all born in this building and I recall a number of early morning visits to the emergency room where Dr. Hilliard would once more drain my ears. That was before tubes could be placed to avoid infections. Many years later I was with my grandmother, Eula McCullough, as she passed away there. "

- Marti Wolf (McCullough)

"I had a job on the switchboard in this building at the end of my junior year in the summer. My Mother also worked at the hospital at that time. "

- Peggy Mitchell Traylor

"Even though my parents were living in Nacogdoches, I (Cathy Childs) was born at Nan Travis Hospital in 1951 because my Aunt Myrtie Lee (Washburn) Daniel was working there."

- Cathy Bayert

"In 1911 my Dad was delivered there by Dr. J.M. and in 1949 Dr. J.M. delivered me. All most everytime when I had to stay in the hospital Dr. J.M. would come by to see how I was doing. I will never forget Dr. J.M. He was such a nice man. Dr. Gray and Dr. Boyd were also my doctors there. "

- Suzanne Holcomb-Litchford
