Sad, really sad – on a lot of levels, but you hit the mark, Ruben.
I knew Bill when he was first starting out and before he married Camille. He visited my folks in Ct. on several occasions and for many years never failed to send my mom and dad a Christmas card. Over the years, Bill and I lost touch, but until long after the death of my father, Bill stayed in contact with mom.I am sure that she’s turning in her grave over all of this. This was a side of the man we never saw and if mom were alive, she’d never in a million years have believed of him.
Sad .
