Comments:

After completing my residency in orthopaedic surgery in 1978, my family and I moved back to Macon from Memphis, TN, to start practice. In 1980 one of my orthopaedic partners (Chuck "Bunny" Richardson) and I started our own two person practice, Forsyth Street Orthopaedic Surgery. The practice gradually expanded to 8 partners and we then merged this past year with another group in town, OrthoGeorgia. I retired from practice December 31, 2014, and since then my wife, Lawson, and I have spent the majority of our time in Cashiers, NC, in the mountains of western NC, where I have found that my golf game gets just a bit worse each month! We now have 3 grandchildren, all of whom live in the Atlanta area and we will probably be moving to Atlanta in the next year or so to be closer to our family. May I share my most sincere thanks to Gena Wilson and Ann Mosley for their leadership and hard work in making our 50th Reunion so very special. And my thanks also to Chuck and Susan Ogburn for allowing us to once again use their place for our Friday evening get together!

Allen, great to hear from you and delighted to hear all about your family. Isle of Palms is a special place..I enjoyed playing Wild Dunes back in the day when I could occasionally make contact with a golf ball. Interestingly, you and I both have granddaughters named "Lawson." Mine was named after my bride of 53 years. All the best to you and I know you are enjoying your retirement. "YITB," Brother Kelly
