High School Graduation Day 2017

On Saturday, May 27, Gus's granddaughter, Abbie Grace Bowman, 18,
graduated from the South Carolina Governor's School for Science and Mathematics, in Hartsville, S.C.

About a week before, I was in Hartsville to hear Abbie's presentation of her senior research project: "Using C. elegans to model the effects of Cystic Fibrosis."

I heard every word she said. I wish I could say that I understood at least some of it!

Abbie will enter Johns Hopkins University this fall.

I'm very proud of her.
