My family gave me the best in education.

In those days I was terrible at athletics and never made a team, but quite easily led my class in academics.

I was particularly good at math and science.

My family background was heavily slanted toward business and seafaring matters.

I'll never forget the fall colors on the Berkshires.

I was one who liked to work with my hands as well as my brain.

I can't think of any relatives that ever went into science.
