One response to “Metzger, Donald H.”
I heard the statement that we should question authority and thought of Don and Dolly way too late.
I was an intern with him at the board of Mental Health in Rochester in 1978.
I remember ember the red T Shirt I gave him emblazoned with the words Question Authority.
I recall many conversations that so apply to today’s political scene.
Don you live on!
May your descendants know your spirit is immortal!
