“My mother was the tenth of twelve children and valedictorian of her high school, but her parents had died by then so she went to work as a bookkeeper. After marrying at age 34, she raised me and my two brothers, both of whom became cardiologists. She taught us the value of education and discipline. She returned to full-time work when we entered high school, and lived to the age of 102,” said Pozen. “She was a critical inspiration to me, not only in my business career but also in my commitment to public service. I am proud to honor her memory with this prize.”
“我母亲是12个孩子中的第10个,也是她高中的告别老师,但她的父母那时已经去世了,所以她去当簿记员。34岁结婚后,她把我和我的两个兄弟养大,他们都成了心脏病专家。她教我们教育和纪律的价值。她回到全职工作时,我们进入高中,并活到102岁,”波岑说。“她对我来说是一个重要的鼓舞,不仅在我的商业生涯中,而且在我对公共服务的承诺中。我很荣幸能以这个奖项来纪念她。”
