My Dear Family, I think I was six years old when I spent the night for the first time at the O'Brien family home in my home town of Poway (41 years ago). I've always felt welcomed there, just like home. All those pesky boys- geez! Bill was like a second Father to me, and most recently I couldn't ask for a better friend to have a beer with when I visited. He'd let me and friends squat in the BEST seats at the Del Mar Racetrack every year! I am going to miss our visits, his wonderful dogs, and our no B.S. conversations. I won't be a stranger. I'll see you all in July. Except Patrick - I'll see you at the poker table really soon!! Love You All, especially my dear Bill.
