Mr. Cafferty,
My sincere condolences on your loss, may you find some small comfort in the words Maria Shriver used to eulogize Tim Russert:
The Little Ship
I stood watching as the little ship sailed out to sea. The setting sun tinted his white sails with a golden light, and as he disappeared from sight a voice at my side whispered, “He is goneâ€.
But the sea was a narrow one. On the farther shore a little band of
friends had gathered to watch and wait in happy expectation. Suddenly they caught sight of the tiny sail and, at the very moment when my companion had
whispered, “He is gone†a glad shout went up in joyous welcome, “Here he
comes!â€

Jack, my name was Robyn Bertrand, just so you know and I keep in touch with Mike Bertrand, of course through our kids and live in the Sacramento area during the summer. I just wanted to express my sympathy. Stay strong and love and thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Sincerely , Robyn
