Hall of Fame to Honor
L.D. Pankey Hall of Fame Chairman H. Raymond Klein, past PFA President, has scheduled our Hall of Fame presentation for Sunday, 24 October, at the Sonesta Hotel on Key Biscayne, Florida. The L.D. Pankey Alumni Association is meeting then to celebrate the opening of their new facility in Key Biscayne. President Herb Blumenthal and Vice President Yvonne Hanley feel sharing this prestigious award with the 200 or so attendees as well as with the Pankey family would bring more honor to this recognition of Dr. Lindsey D. Pankey’s work.

Creo en Pierre Fauchard,
Padre de la Odontologia Moderna by Adolberto Torres, Merida, Venezuela |
||||
|
Creo en el Odontologo, imprescindible servidor, concebido por largos años de sacrificio y estudio. Nacio en la Universidad, Padecio bajo el poder de profesores inicuos, fue calificado injustmente, se sintio muerto y sepultado, pero resucito con esfuerzo, subio al paraninfo a obtener el Titulo, y esta sentado a la derecha del sillon dental donde ha de ayudar a dentados y endentulos.
|
Creo en la derecho a la salud, en la facultad de odontologia, en la consulta odontologia, en las restauraciones dentales, y en la vida eterna de la Universidad Publica. |
