Rex Stowers Clements Jr., 60, an endocrinologist, teacher and researcher who worked 
toward a treatment for diabetes and its complications, died of cancer Sunday at the 
University of Pennsylvania Hospital. He lived in Pineville, Bucks County.

Dr. Clements was senior vice president of clinical and medical affairs since 1994 for 
Exocell Inc., a West Philadelphia company engaged in developing a treatment for 
diabetes. He joined Exocell after seven years as vice president of medical affairs and 
diabetes at Novo-Nordisk Co., a Denmark company also engaged in diabetes 
research.
``Dr. Clements was a caring physician and accomplished scientist whose professional 
contributions to the field of diabetes earned wide respect,'' said Margo P. Cohen, 
president and scientific director at Exocell. ``He had a lifetime professional interest in 
unraveling the causes and complications of diabetes, and has spearheaded 
investigation of new drugs to prevent them.''

Before entering private industry, Dr. Clements taught for nearly 20 years, until 1984, at 
the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and at the University of Alabama, 
Birmingham.

At his death, he was a professor of medicine at the University of Pennsylvania School 
of Medicine.

Dr. Clements authored more than 150 articles on diabetes, endocrinology and 
biochemistry and served on the boards of journals and associations related to the 
disease.

He worked on diabetes-prevention studies sponsored by the federal government, and 
was on numerous panels of the National Institutes of Health studying the ramifications 
of diabetes.

Born in Bryn Mawr, Dr. Clements graduated with a bachelor's degree in 1960 from 
Amherst College and a medical degree in 1964 from Penn's medical school. He 
enjoyed gardening, reading and traveling.

Surviving are his wife of 29 years, Anne Whitney Clements; two sons, George and 
Nicholas; three daughters, Bradley, Gail Redpath and Leslie Haddow; and five 
grandchildren.

A memorial service will be held at 1 p.m. tomorrow at St. Thomas Church, Bethlehem 
Pike and Camp Hill Road, Whitemarsh. Burial will be private.

-------------------------
Deborah Bradley Clements is his dtr by his first wife who became Mrs John C Bennett:
obit of Rex Stowers Clements
http://www.nytimes.com/1989/10/08/style/bradley-clements-wed-to-j-s-moore.html
says she is dtr of Dr Rex S Clements Jr of New Hope and Mrs John C. Bennett Jr. of 
Wyndmoor, Pa. So ... is she a dtr of Anne Lloyd Whitney? NO ... born before her 
father married his second wife.
Published: October 08, 1989 (so she is b 1962)
 
Deborah Bradley Clements, a daughter of Dr. Rex S. Clements Jr. of New Hope, Pa., 
and Mrs. John C. Bennett Jr. of Wyndmoor, Pa., was married yesterday to Jonathan 
Scott Moore, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter B. Moore of New York and Sergeantsville, 
N.J. Judge Kenneth C. MacKenzie of Superior Court in Morristown, N.J., performed the 
ceremony at Round Hill Farm, the bridegroom's parent's home in Sergeantsville.

The bride, 27 years old, is known as Bradley, and she will keep her name. She was 
until recently a law clerk for Judge Harold H. Greene of Federal District Court in 
Washington, and next month she is to join the Washington law firm of Miller, Cassidy, 
Larroca & Lewin as an associate. She graduated from Amherst College and received a 
J.D. degree from Yale University. The bride's father is a vice president of medical 
affairs at Squibb-Novo Inc. in Princeton, N.J. Her stepfather is a partner in the 
Philadelphia law firm of Drinker, Biddle & Reath.
His father was pastor of Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church
Per pub rec on ancestry, his dtr Leslie was b 17 May 1966, so, she, too is not a dtr of 
Anne Lloyd Whitney
I think his son Nicholas is the one b 15 May 1963 (Nicholas J, in Allentown).
And neither is Gail (md to Bruce L Redpath, then to a Russell) Anne's dtr:
obit of Rex Stowers Clements
on Radaris, a Bruce Redpath shows up as 41 (b 1969), related to Deborah L Redpath, 
Frederick L Redpath(his father, per his father's NYTimes obit), and Gail Clements 
Russell
per veromi she is 47 (b 1964)
And I'll guess that son George also is not hers
