Derek, I am grateful to have known your father. Although we could never get him to Virginia to visit, we always saw him when we were home. I will always carry fondest memories. He was kind and thoughtful and a wonderful friend to me and esp Rich and his family. I am glad I got to see him the week before last and will miss him always. Home will not be the same. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. Terri (Rich's wife)
