I was an Administrative Assistant for Dr. Andrew Schally and his wife, Dr. Ana Maria Comaru-Schally, in the Nuclear Medicine Department of the Tulane University and Hospital School of Medicine in the VA Hospital in New Orleans in the 1990s. I remember him as a strong-willed, multilingual, brilliant bear of a scientist. Often excitable, occasionally irascible, he was nonetheless one the most dedicated and approachable persons in the medical and scientific fields I've had the pleasure to have known. I'm truly saddened by the news of his passing. The period of time working with him and his wife is a memory I will cherish always.
Requiescat in pace, Dr. Schally.
