Herbert Osborn "Ozzie" Bagg

Ozzie was a mentor to me when I moved to the USA in 1981 and worked at Rockefeller University. We often shared hotel rooms at laboratory animal conferences, and he always invited me to join him at fancy trade dinners.

He was interested in native American culture and national parks, and we would sometimes...

Although I never had the opportunity to meet Ozzie I met him vicariously through his daughter Nicole. Nicole was raised by incredible parents or else she would not have turned out as talented and giving as she is.
I extend to Nicole my deepest sympathy and love.

I’m so sorry for your loss Nichole! Ozzy was a wonderful man. I’m so happy I got to know him! His absence will be felt by so many.
