After high school, I attended the UofA and graduated in 1964 with
a physics degree. By then Susan Jannetto and I had married
and we had our firstborn, Jon (now a lawyer in Tucson). Medical
school at UCSF followed (where Amy was born, now a PT in
Dallas) and training in Internal Medicine and Pulmonary Disease
now a physicist in Tucson) as an officer in the Public Health
Service; in 1977 I settled in NC with a faculty job at Duke, where I
still work part time. Susan and I parted in 1978. My companion
and partner for the past 30 years is Myrna Bower. Together we
share 11 grandchildren scattered in the East and the West,
giving us travel opportunities and lots of birthdays to remember.
My hobbies include blacksmithing and motorcycling.
