1916-2002
____________________
Desmond was a legendary scientist.
He was also a very charming man. I shall always remember the time
he gave me with Betty. I shall remember their cabin near Point Reyes.
I shall remember walking along Drake beach. I shall remember the
house and the little garden on Yosemite and the lamb with mint sauce,
and the collection of ancient maps of Africa...All these memories
are dear to my heart. Desmond was a gentleman. He always made me
feel at home in the US, just as he was at the end of his professional
odyssey .
