A wise man once told me "There will come a day when your memory of him will bring a smile to your face instead of a tear to your eye." I hope your memories this season will help you through this time. God bless.

Dave:
Will miss the long and well spoken discussions with you at Miami when we thought we knew everything, and much later at White Castle , when we knew we didn't. Thank you for all those days and I will remember your eloquence always.
