In Memoriam

William H. Bergstrom, MD, a medical professor,

pediatrician and researcher who outside the lecture hall and laboratory would run

clinics to treat migrant workers' children, has died. Bergstrom, 95, died January

16, 2016. His medical career included research posts in Boston, teaching

pediatrics for decades at the State University of New York Upstate Medical

University at Syracuse, NY, and traveling with medical teams to Algiers, Brazil

and China. Bergstrom and his wife of nearly 72 years, Charlotte Stuart

Bergstrom, lived for 60 years in Manlius, N.Y., where they raised four children,

from 1952 until moving to Danvers MA in 2012. Born Jan. 1, 1921, in Bay City,

Mich., he attended the Albany Academy in Albany, N.Y. and Binghamton (N.Y.)

Central High School, earned a B.A. degree at Amherst College in the "Hurricane

Class" of 1942 and an M.D. degree at the College of Medicine and Dentistry of

the University of Rochester in 1945. During college summers Bergstrom took
