I read with some interest, as you can imagine, your web page regarding
my father, Dr Delwin B. Dusenbury. It is true that his sight is impaired
( he has some peripheral vision, so he can get around on his own in
familiar surroundings) and he uses a hearing aid, but his mind is as
sharp as ever. He would love to get a phone call from anyone who had
the time. The effort would be richly repaid with great stories from his
Temple years.

Here are some additional facts about his life. He does have a middle
name. It's "Bennett" (his mother's maiden name) not Delwin. Delwin is
my middle name and my son's as well. He was born in Milwaukee, Wis. and
got his BA from the University of Wisconsin; his MA from the University
of Maine; and his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota. He taught at
the University of Florida from 1946 to 1955 and among his duties there
were directing the Florida Players and running the Theater Department.

There are more than 2 "Dr. D's." His first wife, Winifred, was also a
Ph.D. I have a JD and my brother Richard has 2 Ph.D's (history and
taxation). He has a total of 4 sons (no daughters) and 6 grandchildren
(2 boys, 4 girls). His son Tom is an actor living and working in New
York. I am a cyber lawyer currently working at Netscape Communications
(of course it had to be communications) in silicone valley and living in
San Francisco. Richard is a professor of taxation teaching at Florida
State, and David is a naturalist and horticulturist living with his
family in Wellesly, Mass.
