Steve and Family: Please accept my deepest condolences on your wife's passing. You and I go back to our tennis playing days at Northeastern, where I have fond memories of those times. I last saw you in the late 80's when you worked at a school that my step children attended. I hope that you can take solace in the family legacy that stands as a testament to you and your wife's love for each other.
