Dear Paul: I worked with Barbara at Wiley, Rein & Fielding. Barbara was a "class act" that I will always remember. I will say a prayer for you that God will give you strength during this difficult time. Please know that in the many conversations that I had with her she always had very wonderful things to say about you!!
