Lee's Story

I think the Class of '62 voted me "Most Likely To Succeed". If that meant you thought I would go far in life, I guess you weren't wrong, since I'm writing this from Tasmania, Australia,. I've lived here with my wife (Mary Lou Potter, Class of '63) and kids (4), all now grown and gone. We came to Tasmania in late 1972 "for a year or two" after I finished my PhD studies at Michigan State. The offer of a job here, when they were scarce in the US, meant we decided to stay. Of course it quickly became our children's home, despite two extended stays back in the US. And now with four genuine Australian grandchildren (and dual citizenship) we're well anchored here. I retired from the University of Tasmania almost a year ago. I'd started there in 1974 (my first and only real job so far) and spent one third of a century teaching successive classes of medical and pharmacy students the intricacies ...Expand for more
of human microscopic anatomy and cell biology. Somewhere along the way I gave up on the research that prompted me to come here in the first place. As interesting as it was, teaching became more important to me, so that's what I focussed on. Since retiring I've been trying to regain some of the interests I had to set aside or never got to develop. So, hold your breath: I'm learning to make sourdough bread, play the trombone, make half decent photographs, and trying to stay reasonably fit by bicycling. Bush walking and getting back to choral music are on my to-do list also, along with getting some formal training in massage (really!). Reading this, it hardly seems to convey who I've become and what really lies beneath these interests. Actually I don't think I'm much different (or much older, either, for that matter), but as they say "time wounds all heels", so I guess I'm no exception.
