Joyce Kales

Sixty-five years have passed since our close-knit class went our various ways. Many members of the class are no longer with us. I am age 90 years and long retired from academic psychiatry. My husband Anthony (SOM '59) passed one year ago. Currently I live in Plantation, Fl and have spent the holidays visiting our children - Stefanos Kales, M.D. Boston; Helen Kales, M.D. Sacramento, and James Kales MPP, Los Angeles. In May, I was in Rochester hooding my granddaughter Anastasia Gibson, M.D. at her graduation from U. of Rochester SOM. My time at Wayne was most rewarding and I greatly appreciate the opportunities afforded by the wonderful experience as a student. I am unable to attend the reunion but send my affection and best wishes to everyone.
