He made it possible to meet him and Maryl by bringing her to Long Island
and flying me from Florida to Sacramento and back inorder to visit with Maryl while she was in hospital. I had told Maryl that Dave sounded like a Teddy Bear when I first spoke with him on the telephone. I am glad that they are finally together again. God Grant Them Eternal Rest.
