William "Bob" Redd passed away on June 25, 2010.  I will miss him deeply.  Bob was simply one of the best people I ever met.  He was a role model for children, patient, generous and kind.  He was one of my very best, and most memorable friends.  Even though we didn't see much of each other over the last few years, when we did there was instant re-bonding.  He is survived by his wife, Marie Enochty, and daughters Shayna and Gidget.

Every year, Bob and Marie would together attempt to racially integrate Cape Cod by opening their home to many inner city kids from Brooklyn.  My kids would live as much in their home as ours during the summers.  They still talk about the time Bob and I danced after downing a little too much of Marie's Saki.  I loved Cape Cod, for sure, but I loved Bob even more.  I will remember him, and miss him, for the rest of my life.

Here is a recent picture of Ronee, Shayna, Marie, Bob and me, taken last fall while I was temporarily living in Cambridge.

A very dear friend of ours succumbed to cancer.  This album celebrates Ronee's last visit with Jaci.  
(It's an album with music, but depending on the speed of your Internet connection, it may take a little while to start playing).
