Dr. Havron and his young family moved back to the Lower 48 in 1994, where he was an assistant professor of Family Practice at Michigan State University, treating patients and teaching medical students and family practice residents. Dr. Havron, his wife Anna and children moved to Winchester in 1997 to be closer to family.
