Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry to hear of Dr. Oppenheim's passing. I don't know much about Ron. I only met him once, but I could tell he was a great person. R.I.P.

I am just now learning of Ron´s death and share my sadness and condolences. I was a graduate student with Ron in Raleigh and his generosity of mentoring and teaching made a great difference in my life. Ron´s spirit remains a testament to his life and I am forever thankful. Janet (Hall) Zucker (PhD, 1985)

Thank you to everyone for the kind comments. Though my heart is very heavy, it is good to know that so many have fond memories of Ron. On some far flung trip or just here at home, he always had my back (and front, too). I will miss him more than words can say. As in the picture, he has passed on. Sherry Vinsant

I was saddened to hear of Dr. Oppenheim´s passing. He was indeed a great asset to the Anatomy Dept and the Medical School. I remember when he was hired and how impressed we all were with someone of his scientific caliber being a part of the Dept. Sherry my heart goes out to you.
