Just heard of Bill's passing from Ed Jim who worked with him at St. Vencent's as did I when we were residents. Lou DelGurcio of the same era also passed away a couple of weeks ago. My condolences at the loss of a wonderful human being, surgeon, teacher and father.  4/04/13

I am saddened by the loss of Dr. Panke. He always had a smile on his face when he did his rounds on 12 West. Lots of prayers being said for all who are mourning. God bless.

To the Pankes,

I am very sad to hear about your loss. I have fond memories of Dr. Panke. Whether it was running across the street asking for the extra set of keys to my own front door or knowing for weeks that my first trick-or-treat stop would be 7 Wayside Lane, Dr. Panke and  Marilyn were an indelible part of my childhood. He will be missed.

Best wishes,
Michael Loeb

To Joan and the entire Panke Family - Just learned of your Dad's passing. I'm so very sorry to hear this news.  I have fond memories of your Dad when we were young and then teenagers.  I hope you all find comfort when thinking of the family memories you created over the years and the contribution he made as a well respected physician.  My thoughts are with you all.  
Much Love, Kim (Marks) Fried

Dr. Panke was a great friend of my aunt Mary "LIz" Murphy of Spellman 3.  He gave her lots of rides home to Inwood on his way to Scarsdale.  I hope they can reunite for a chat in heaven.  I know Aunt Mary would love that.  Jeanne Duffy RN

Dr Panke was well loved at St Vincent's and will be well missed by all. Condolences to his family.

On behalf of the Alumnae Association of St Vincent's School of Nursing,  we mourn the passing  of a great surgeon and  a truly good Christian man who was always kind and gentlemanly.  At a time and era when many a surgeon threw tantrums, among other things, in the OR, Bill Panke treated everyone with respect. He believed and acted in a way that confirmed that the patient always came first. He was devoted to the SVH nurses and we returned that affection. We know he is now in the company of Our Lord and we keep his family in our prayers.
Joan Caruana, President of the Alumnae Assosciation

Yes, I too remember him as "one of the good guys".  May he rest in peace.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Our deepest condolences and prayers for healing in this time of profound loss.  We love you Claire!

My deepest sympathy to Dr. Panke's family.  It was a pleasure to work with him as a surgeon when I worked in the PAR and as a member of the Ethic's Committee at St. Vincent's.  He was an exemplary teacher!

As a lowly student nurse in 1953, Dr. Panke, a resident doctor, was one of the few to treat us with kindness and humor. He was a favorite of mine.  God Bless his soul.  Sympathies to the family.
