To the family, I had the pleasure of working with your dad when I was a young nurse at Upstate starting 1974,I was on the 6th floor and we had a 3 bed Resp ICU,He taught me the MA1 inside and out..I remember him fondly of all his teaching,,and knowledge he passed on..May you all find comfortin knowing he taught so many of us marvelously..My Sympathy, JanetPickard-Smith
