Kellogg, Lloyd S. “Doc”
OREGON-Dr. Lloyd S. Kellogg (“Doc”) was born Dec. 29, 1918 in Oakdale, Wis., to Ruby and Stephen Kellogg. He grew up in Tomah, Wis., graduating from Tomah High School in 1937. He enrolled in the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Pharmacy, graduating in 1941. During World War II he enlisted in the U.S. Navy as a Pharmacist Mate Second Class, and served with the Northwestern group at Wesley Memorial Hospital as Pharmacist Mate 1st Class until his transfer to the fleet Marines. While serving in the South Pacific, he was recommended for medical school, enrolling at the University of Illinois in 1944. In November of 1945, he and Marguerite "Peg" Mrotek were married in Manitowoc, Wis. In June 1948, he graduated from the University of Illinois Medical School, then interned at Methodist Hospital in Madison. Doc served Oregon, Wis., and the surrounding community as a general practitioner and surgeon for nearly 40 years, until his retirement in 1987.

Hunting and fishing with family and friends and following sports were his favorite activities. He enjoyed a full and independent life up until his death on Thursday, Dec. 25, 2014, surrounded by family at Agrace HospiceCare.

Our most sincere sympathy to the entire family in your loss. What a wonderful life you all shared because of your dad (grandpa) and mom (grandma)! The memories must be spoken aloud -- and often -- so the thread of his love continues in you all.

Our sincere sympathy is extended to the Kellogg family. "Doc" Kellogg will be missed by all his neighbors. I will especially miss him busy working in his yard, as he often was when I was on my daily walk. I would often stop and visit with him. In year's past we remember seeing him cycling about the neighborhood on his old, but sturdy bicycle. In the winter months he would frequently make his way down the whole block with his snowblower, always with a friendly smile and wave.
The neighborhood will miss him!
Jerry and Jeanne Neath.

Dr. Kellogg was one of the great General/Family Physicians. He had the privilege of practicing primary care during the Golden Years of the 50s and 60s. He served during the transition of primary care in the 60s. . He served as a doctor for many, many people in Oregon. He was respected by his peers both in Family Medicine and on the staff at St. Mary's Hospital. And he did it all--office, hospital, house calls, surgery, and delivering babies. He did all this and still had a rich family life. Lloyd was one of a kind and will not be duplicated. Thanks, Dr. Kellogg.
Our sympathy to Peg and the family. Dr. Richard and Joan Shropshire

And he did it all--office practice, hospital, surgery, deliveries, and house calls. He was truly a doctor for his community. Who can say how many lives he touched? He was always highly respected by his peers both in primary care and in specialty services. Lloyd will surely be missed. He will not be duplicated. We also send our sincerest sympathy to Peg and the family.
