Good for you Tom. You deserved a long and happy life. I remember you from the MB Democratic Club in the "80's.
I remember you as a real gentleman; smart and caring but also funny and fun to be around. I only wish politics of today had your civility. The world is enriched by you having been a part of it.
Most sincerely
