I was happy to be able to spend some time with Dr. Ford in May of this year. He shared his love of his "two good daughters" as well as his affection for his cat, Tiger, and his former dog, Sadie. I had the opportunity to meet his granddaughters, Hayley and Sammie, and I send my sincere sympathy to them on their loss. I also got to spend additional time with his grandson, Aaron. I don't think Dr. Ford could have left this earth without being secure in the knowledge that Aaron would continue the excellent care for his beloved cat, Tiger. Sincere sympathy to Aaron as well, and to his siblings Sarah, Michael, and Matthew.
Dr. Ford was able to find pleasure in a book, a good cup of coffee, a smattering of potato salad, and a fine animal. I never heard him complain and he showed kindness and appreciation to those who visited to provide care for him.

I had the chance to visit a Jazz Concert with Jean & Sam at the Lake Tahoe. It was a wonderful concert together with them. I enjoyed their company so very much. I got to know Sam, When I was with Carla and Tom Oberst taking care of the kids as an AuPair.
