at the Tabernacle Presbyterian Church. Dr. Jesseph died Monday (March 29) at University Hospital. He was

"Dr. Jesseph was, indeed, one of this country's finest surgeons and teachers and clinical scientists. He will be sorely missed by his many colleagues, students and patients," said Dr. Steven C. Beering, dean of the I.U. School of Medicine.
Dr. Jesseph, who came to the I.U. Medical Center in 1971 from Ohio State Univer- sity where he was vice-chairman of surgery, developed major programs of educa- tion, research and patient care. He also played a major role in the programs involving the Indiana Statewide Program for Medical Education and the coopera- tive program between the School of Medicine and Wishard Memorial Hospital.
Also, Dr. Jesseph was active in helping recruit medical students for the Indiana Army National Guard, with the belief that doctors were essential for the coun- try's military preparedness. He had served as a Japanese interpreter in the Marines in World War II, as a Navy reservist for 10 years and as a colonel in the Indiana Army National Guard.
On March 25, Dr. Jesseph was presented the Eagle Award by Lt. Gen. Lavern Weber, chief of the National Guard Bureau in Washington, D.C. This honor is the high- est that the chief of the National Guard Bureau can bestow and was given in recognition of Dr. Jesseph's work in originating the Medical Reserve Officers Training Corps -- the first of its kind. He also received the Indiana Distin- guished Service medal, presented by John Ryan, legal adviser and special assis- tant to Gov. Robert D. Orr.
Dr. Jesseph received a bachelor's degree from Whitman College, doctor of medi- cine and master's degrees from the University of Washington.
He was the author of many publications and books nad had an active interest in medical educational films. He was director and officer in many professional organizations, notably as chairman and director of the American Board of Surgery and director of the American Board of Family Practice. He was also a Sagamore of the Wabash, a member of Alpha Omega Alpha medical honorary and the Society of Sigma Xi scientific honorary.
Dr. Jesseph is survived by his wife, Marley A.; two sons, Steven A. Jesseph and Jerry M. Jesseph, M.D.; his mother, Eula L.; a brother, Jerry G., and three grandchildren. Memorial contributions may be made to the I.U. Foundation.
