Proudest Moments of My Life: Birth of my sons, watching their success

Things I Would Like My Classmates to Know:  My mother will be 100 years old on April 28th. My son Elliott has his own business in Denver. Justin is doing his residency in ENT at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore. I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure in 2001, and was told I would need a heart transplant. I decided against that and the old ticker is still going. I can’t do much, but I’m still here, for whatever that’s worth.
