As I read of Gerry´s death in today´s Globe, I looked at the beautiful sculpture Tootsie, who crafted it, and Gerry gave to us on the occasion of our wedding in 1979 (Nora Bowman/Alan James Rae). Tootsie´s artistry has graced our various homes as we moved over the years. Alan died this July at age 99, we always thought of the Halberts with respect and admiration. Nora Bowman
