Is there a doctor in the house?
Yes, there are many doctors in the family/house!
I am compiling a list of relatives (living and deceased) on all sides of my family (Hilton/Hylton, Paige, Reynolds, Richardson, Guerrant, Woody) with earned doctorates from accredited colleges and universities (e.g. PhD, Ed.D., J.D., D.O., M.D., ThD, D.D.S., O.D., D.C., Pharm.D.). There are others, but all are considered terminal degrees; the highest degree a person can earn in his/her disciple -- education, medicine, law, religion, etc. I want our youth to see how high they can rise! I also want them to view us as resources. Please send the name(s) of any “doctor” relatives to our family website's blog page:
