had
watched
growing
up
...

smile
after
our

and
your

of
encouragement
was
like
a

to
me
...
I
was
thrilled
by
your
kind
words
...
but
there
was
so
much
more
to
learn
Sir

These
pictures
I
had
taken
of
you
when
you
wore
the
chef
cap

I
was
tardy
in
sending
it
to

never
thought

would
be
put
up
here

a
remembrance....
Your
