My family gave me the best in education.
At Harvard I majored in chemistry with a strong inclination toward math.
At the time my dog had a fungus on her chest that wouldn't heal and resisted treatment. I made an ointment with our product and it cleared up in two days. She lived to 17 years.
I can't think of any relatives that ever went into science.
I was one who liked to work with my hands as well as my brain.
I was born in Taunton, Massachusetts on June 1, 1917, but I actually grew up in nearby New Bedford.
