Still thinking about Rainy. He was big enough to cast a memorable shadow even on passing acquaintances.

My condolences. I met Rainy decades ago when I was a consumer advocate working on Texas Lemon Law. Rainy was representing Auto Manufacturers. We quickly found common ground and got to know and like one another. He told me fascinating stories about his days playing professional baseball, starting in the Negro league.
I regret not having kept in touch - what a wonderful man!
