William Gross, D.D.S. This page is dedicated to the memory of my grandmother, Esther, who gave her love and time to her grandchildren to help make our dreams come true. I want to thank my parents and in-laws for their help and support to my daughters, jessica, for humoring me with her goofiness, and Rebecca, whose birth afforded me the opportunity of Watching one of the true miracles and feelings of elation offered to man. Most of all, to my wife, Shery, who through constant love, help, and understanding, has shown me that a relationship between a man and a woman can be very special indeed. Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself. Love possesses not nor would it be possessed: for love is sufficient unto love. - Kahlil Gilbran 1 Lawn Blav- 2'-Q, 6 X W iw Wir: K y fv . K it V, f it I ., 'ag 79 7

Musa., p M dwoomg a , 1 5 David Lawrence Grochmal, D.D.S. Dave is a native of Chicopee, Massachusetts. He graduated from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst in 1975. Dave carried a double major in college taking Accounting as well as Pre-dentistry. While he was at UMass he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa, Phi Kappa Phi, and was nominated for a Rhoadis scholarship. All of which Dave will tell you did absolutely nothing for his golf game. In fact, having mastered the ability to shoot 71-80 convinced Dave to leave profes- sional golf to other members of his family and turn to a less frustrating career, such as dentistry. Known in some cubicles as 'iSquid , Dave's immediate practice plans will be determined by, you guessed it, the U.S. Navy and he is considering making the Navy a career. One of the few people who enjoyed all of the clinic tours Dave especially enjoyed the punch at Oral Cancer Society meetings. Dave would like to thank Smith 81 Wesson for many vivid recollec- tions of factory life, his mother and father for their support, and especially the U.S. Navy for paying the tuition. Dave also wishes to thank all the wonderful patients he was privileged to treat over the last four years and Doctors Moore and Wohlfarth for their advice and extraordinary example.

Ji .AW ,an 4 ills. at E ' f 1 Allan Harris, D.D.S. Al comes to us from northern California. The Truck took an illegal turn somewhere along Highway 101, headed toward George- town, and has been parked here ever since. He left behind four great years at U.S.F., but did take with him a BS in Biology. Al's years at Georgetown have been divided between fun and no fun. Freshman year he enjoyed his stint as research assistant under Dr. Tylenda. Inevitably, destiny led him to his favorite tour, Pedo, where he was able to pass himself off as Hjust one of the kids. Besides being a member of Delta Sigma Delta Al could also be found in his off hours behind the cash register at Pearson's Pharmacy or shooting hoops at the gym. Plans for the future include an associateship and eventually a west coast practice. Al dedicates his page to his family for all their love and support. And of course, to Brownie, with love. Additional encouragement came from Sid and Vera - Whatever we vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely believe, and enthusiastically act upon . .. must inevitably come to pass!
