View from the End of the Road

This is the life story of a family branch rooted in America in 1636 represented by a man who graduated from Colgate University, New York Medical College during World War II and Harvard with a post graduate degree who learned the practice of medicine in a small coal mining town with a young family doing medical procedures that would be impossible today. He, with the support of his wife, spent an innovative problem solving Air Force career that included many incredible situations, Vietnam War combat, hospital construction, medical quality control, Physician Assistant and Nurse Practitioner training. This was followed by cost effective public sector practice and administration as well as corporate medical practice and administration followed by retirement and active resident participation in a continuing care retirement community with a structured approach to resident participation.
