I noted in an earlier blog entry that the Sacramento Bee ran a nice obituary on retired UC Cooperative Extension food scientist George K. York II.
The San Francisco Chronicle also ran an obituary on Dr. York. It included this poignant quote from his son, Sacramento neurologist George K. York III:
"He was gentle and generous with his time, resources and really vast knowledge. Many times he had the opportunity to leave the university for industry and make 10 times the amount, but he was much happier sharing his knowledge with the people of California."
