Thank you and bless you for being so thoughtful with us on the hill -- letting us know when we had hours to vacate or fielding phone calls for emergencies at home before anyone had phones on Spicewood. But mostly, thank you for being a friend to Larry and me (and for taking me for that October ride when you pointed out things that are no longer and I was frantically taking notes!). Willie and family, we lost a great woman.
