To Kathy’s family – my sincerest condolences on the loss of your loving wife/mom/grandmom.  I can’t thank you enough for sharing her with me.  I’m certainly missing my dear sweet friend.  Having her in my life made me a better person.  And, I have to say it again, we had “boatloads” of fun on our cruises – something I will forever cherish.
