It was late into the night at the Delivery Room at Norwalk Hospital. I had just delivered the babyRead More of Judge Callahan's daughter and her husband. The couple wanted to call Judge Callahan and his wife and tell them the good news but they didn't know the phone number. I asked where he was and they started laughing.......they said, "He is staying at your summer house on Block Island." Robert Callahan will be remembered as a really decent and nice guy and a good and honest and hardworking judge.

Judge Callahan was a football star at Norwalk High School. About 18 years ago, Norwalk High SchoolRead More started a wall of honor with 10 of their most illustrious graduates. They included Judge Callahan. Also on the wall was John Mcgrath...Medal of Honor in WW11 and Daniel Shea (who I knew in NHS)...Medal of Honor from Vietnam (both given posthumously). Also Calvin Murphy, the basketball great, the finest natural athelete I have ever known. Edward Kendall, of Norwalk High, received the Nobel Prize in 1950 for Medicine/physiology for discovering Thryroxin and Cortisol. They included Grace Gorham, the first woman obstetrician. She told me that the male doctors weren't too happy to have a woman. In the old days, the family doctors did the deliveries and the general surgeons came in for the (rare..about 5 %) Cesarian sections. When the general surgeons discovered that they could stay home in bed and Dr. Gorham would come in and do the C Section.....they started liking her. ....and my father Dr. Robert Appleby. He started a free Pediatric clinic that had 5500 children...so every child could have quality medical care unrelated to parents' ability to pay. He built 280 non profit housing units (at about half the price) so young families could afford a home. He also built dozens of Christian churches in India and started the 4 School based health clinics in Norwalk. Not too bad a record for a poor High School.
