Remembering my brother-in-law, Bob. Thank you for teaching me one of my first words, "caca", for getting up extra early in the mornings to take me to school in S.F., and picking me up after school in your corvette which made the guys think I liked older men. Thank you for walking me down the aisle when I got married, and for always speaking your words of wisdom with a little twist, and a laugh. I sure miss you here on earth, but will be happy again to see you in Heaven. Love you, your sister-in-law
