I always enjoyed our conversations about politics, the economy, the world as a whole and, of course, surfing. He provided a creative and fresh perspective on many issues. More importantly, he was one of the "good guys." His sense of the right thing to do as a Husband, Father and member of the community was flawless. He is deeply missed. My thoughts and prayers are with Gail, his sons and the family. Hal
