Mr. Worth used mathematics for maritime navigation, but also understood and appreciated the beauty and art behind this often unappreciated discipline and field of knowledge... I would rate Mr. Worth as one of the most competent and memorable teachers whom I studied under...
Things he loved...a good story, a good deal, a frugal style, a clever response, a good dancer, saving money, family gatherings, math, "Scent of a Woman", Steve McQueen, Humphrey Bogart -esp. Casa Blanca, Manhattan Clam chowder, family heritage, Jack London, doughboys and eggs, Hank Williams, "Bobbie McGee" , ...& so much more...please add to the list!!
