Not sure what to say?

One change to his bio. My Aunt Lorraine did not outlive Roy for long. I miss them both.

Still, after 10 years, feel a sense of personal loss. A wonderful person, physician and teacher.

A wonderful teacher, mentor and friend, who made a major impact on my life and career. He will always be missed.

One of the finest individuals and finest teachers I have ever known. It is a privilege to have known him.

I miss Uncle Roy all the time. What else can I say?

One of the kindest and most patient teachers I recall from my student days at UVM. I regret that I never heard him play the harmonica!
His family was privileged to embrace him as their own. My condolences on their loss.

I remember Dr. Korson well and learned dermatopathology from him while a resident in pathology at UVM. He was a wonderful teacher and a kind man. How nice to learn about his extensive background, contributions and experiences in life and how lucky we were to have him for so long.
