Doug, a celebrated rheumatologist and lifelong Pennsylvanian, died Oct. 18, 2014.
He entered Princeton after graduating from Episcopal Academy and serving two years in the Navy. He was a co-founder of the Tigertones, a member of Quadrangle, and a biology major who graduated with high honors.
In 1954, he received a medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. After his internship and residency, he opened his own practice in Bryn Mawr, Pa., in 1958, and worked there until retirement in 1998.
Doug was a co-founder of the Bryn Mawr Rehabilitation Center and Bryn Mawr Medical Specialists Association. He was attending physician at Bryn Mawr Hospital for nearly 40 years and was its chief of rheumatology for 25 years. At various times he was on the faculties of Penn, Temple, and the Jefferson Medical College. In addition to membership in many medical societies, he was a board member of the Episcopal Academy Alumni and of Philadelphia’s Jubilee School for indigent children.
He maintained his enthusiasm for music by singing in a barbershop chorus, The Mainliners. Doug was a deeply faithful man who served his Bryn Mawr church in many ways.
We extend our sympathy to Carolyn, his wife of 61 years; children Ruth ’79, Doug, David, and Elizabeth; and seven grandchildren.
