Will Foreman lived his values and practiced them every day of his life. He served his country with valor in Viet Nam as an Air Force pilot and medical doctor. He saved hundreds of soldiers and children on both sides, returning later as a physician to rehabilitate children who had been disabled by war. Later he studied psychiatry and devoted his medical career to caring for those in the under-served communities of Oakland and Richmond,California until 2 weeks before his passing on November 17, 2017. He penned and published three volumes on social justice and democracy and was an avid supporter the arts.
