Subject: CRYONICS ACS founder's Mother Suspended

Most of us know Jerry White. He was one of the founders of ACS,
a past President, and currently a Governor and the Treasurer.
 
Jerry's mother, age 73, native of San Francisco, died of
bronchogenic carcinoma (lung cancer) on Jan 8, 1992.
 
Although no advance arrangements had been made, Jerry, assisted
by ACS and Trans-Time, had his mother's brain suspended. Removal
and perfusion of the brain was done with cooperation of the local
mortician and pathologist. This all took place over the 8th and 9th
of January.  The brain is now in long-term liquid nitrogen storage
at Trans-Time.
 
Jerry is preparing a more detailed description of the suspension, which
will appear in the Immortalist and be posted here.
