This news item is about: When Larry Waitz digs into his chocolate cake and ice cream on Monday, July 12, he will be reflecting upon a full century of life as a horseman, veterinarian, sailor, painter and family man. Dr. Waitz entered Cornell University’s Veterinary College in 1927, when Veranus Moore, one of the original six faculty and the second dean of the college, was still active. Shortly after graduation, Waitz developed a large animal practice near his home in Hempstead, New York.
