    I just learned of your loss, Karen, at this belated date. I had to share my memory of you and Phil – such a great team together – kindly visiting my father, Don, in the hospital many years ago and making him laugh with all your hilarious stories. The DMN was never the same after Phil retired, and my father never stopped missing him.
