Dale R. Lindsay

Dale Richard Lindsay, Ph.D., a 26-year resident of Davis, died Nov. 3, 2002, at
Sutter Davis Hospital following a brief illness. Born on Aug. 9, 1913, in Bunker

to Chancellor Emil Mrak and later assistant chancellor for research and health

He was instrumental in the successful founding of the UC Davis School of

and many of the first faculty of the School of Medicine.

Prior to that, he served as a commissioned officer in the U.S. Public Health

He served as deputy to the general director of Massachusetts General Hospital in

allied health education at Duke University from 1971 to 1975; assistant director
for science coordination at the National Center for Toxicological Research in
Arkansas from 1975 to 1976.

He then retired from active professional life. He was a fellow in the American
Association for the Advancement of Science and the American Public Health
Association, member of the Entomological Society of America and the Commissioned
Officer Association of the U.S. Public Health Service, member of the honorary
societies of Sigma Xi, Phi Kappa Phi and Gamma Sigma Delta.

He is survived by his wife of 65 years, Sybil A. (McCoy) Lindsay; daughters
Martha Cover of Tucson, Ariz., Judy Clapp of Tulsa, Okla., and Pat Lindsay of
Davis. He is also survived by seven grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren.

A memorial service will begin at 2 p.m. Wednesday in the sanctuary of Davis

the donor's favorite charity or student scholarships at the UC Davis School of
Medicine.
