Mo,

I am so sorry for your loss. Although I did not know BIF as well as you, he was always highly spoken of with the Department of Health. Take care. Fondly,

Dear Maureen and family,, we are very sorry to hear of BIF's passing. It seems like yesterday we were taking many road trips cheering on our boys at many hockey events. BIF always had a smile and was very positive in everything he said and did to set great examples for our children. We will always remember the generosity and hospitality you extended to our family. Our thoughts are with you. Take care.

Mo and family, we saw the obituary notice in the Times Union today and were so saddened to hear the news of Bif's passing. So many of his Health Department friends have such great memories of his quick wit and dedication to accomplishing a task. To use the Irish expression: "No finer man within a day's walk."

Maureen and family, what a shock to learn of BIF's passing. Spent many days with BIF both in our careers and on the golf course. We always had a good laugh and treasured our time together. Both you and BIF were so generous to Jill and me when we were searching for a home in St Augustine. Maureen, if there is anything we can do to help with things in Florida please let me know. God Bless BIF.
