Great seeing this video again, Bob! That museum view is special for me; I may have told you this before, but my father is pictured on the Michigan Medical Wall of Fame there with Dr. Grace Eldering (one of the developers of the whooping cough vaccine along with Dr. Pearl Kendrick) and Dr. Lonnie Gordon, the first African American woman to be nominated for this honor. I discovered that picture in 2004 when I was in town for National Heritage Academy business. It was a wonderful moment. So many memories in this video. Thanks!
