2023

Alice graduates from Geisinger Medical School in two weeks and will be staying to do a residency in general surgery for the next five to seven years! Charlotte is an architect in LA (too far away!) and works for a firm that deals with historical and older buildings and locations. She has worked on Union Station in LA and the home of Charles and Ray Eames (you probably would recognize the Eames chair). I am planning to retire from Penn at the end of the next academic year, June 2024, but a comment by Nick Richardson lives in the back of my head — I am one really bad week at work away from retirement! The business of medicine is overwhelming, but there is one exciting bit of news. We don’t have to wear a mask in the hospital all of the time now! I thought that day would never come. Jan is too busy between tennis and golf to keep up with.
