Judith, You couldn't join us for lunch that day in New York City...something about your leg. Murray met Bill when he covered LBJ in '60, then repeatedly when he'd return from VN so Bill and LBJ could hear what was "really" going on over there. Friendship, trust ensued for years. Bill's loss to you/family is huge, as it is to us all who benefited from his/your fine programs. Deep condolences to all of you...he will be greatly missed by us all. dodi fromson
