Abstract
I would like to express sincere thanks on behalf of the Stohlman children and myself to Dr. Rolf Neth for arranging for these memorial lectures and for the privilege of speaking to you briefly about the late Fred Stohlman. As most of you know, Fred and his lovely wife, Bernadette, died tragically on September 8, 1974 when the explosion of a terrorist bomb plunged their plane into the Ionian Sea. This senseless act of violence deprived 4 children of their beloved parents and ruthlessly terminated, at the age of 45, the career of a brilliant investigator and physician. Much has since been published concerning Fred Stohlman’s outstanding achievements and I will not dwell on these accomplishments. Rather I would like to recall to you, his friends, associates and fellow scientists, some of the human and endearing traits of this unique individual.
