Not sure what to say?

I first met Mrs. Carpenter in 1973 and never had a meeting with her that was not fascinating. She was a remarkable lady. She was as much a part of the Medical School in its formative years as was her husband whom she always referred to as The Dean. I will miss her.

I haven't met Mrs. Carpenter but I have heard so many great things about her from my mother, Betty Bailey.In a way she has touched my life as well.
