Norah and I have two daughters and four grandchildren. We recently celebrated our 50 th weddinganniversary. I retired in 2011 at the age of 79, but still continue to be active in research. Clearly,my career choices began in the chemistry laboratories of CCNY, to which I, like many before andsince, owe a great debt of gratitude. Abe Mazur pointed me in the right direction and helped me to getthe best training. The process of higher education for the youth of New York City begun in 1847, whichhas continued since, is something for which the people of New York can take great pride.***Thelma (Terry) Zucker (maiden) Goldstein BSED, MAED:was a member of Kappa Delta Phi and Sis Gibbs ‘53.
