Bohdan Terleckyj, M.S. IN MEMORIAM The entire PCPM Community suffered a great loss when Bohdan Terleckyj. M.S.. Assistant Professor of Microbiology and Immunology, passed away on January 16. 1997 at the age of 48. Mr. Terleckyj received his baccalaureate and masters degrees from Temple University and spent his entire 22 year professional career at PCPM teaching podiatric medical students and conducting research that contributed significantly to the profession. His skill and dedication to teaching and the genuine care he had for each of his students was rewarded by being selected as teacher of the year on three separate occasions. To his colleagues, he was always ready and willing to help when called upon and his motivation was never for personal recognition, but for the good of the institution and the profession. Bohdan Terleckyj had a positive impact on all who knew him. His students who learned from him and his colleagues who worked with him are better for having had that experience. His passing will leave a void. Bohdan Terleckyj will be greatly missed, but the memories we have of him will always bring a smile and will sustain us. 4
