"Tony and I spent many years together at Nova Biomedical. We worked side by side while I developed the Electronic Hardware and Tony developed the Software. We clicked from day 1 and helped Nova Biomedical design and release their first Glucose Meter under the supervision and Chemistry development of the glucose strip of Dr. CC Young.. With Dr. CC Youngs direction and Chemistry design, Tony and I designed many chemistry analysis meters which is in our picture. A true friend. I miss him greatly."
