D was an only child. Thru the years, he had very little contact with his mother or father. In fact, I was married to him for almost 15 yrs before I did his geneology to find out he actually had 3 half-siblings. I also made contact with Ellen Donovan (half-sister) to meet D's father. Sadly, he died day before we were to fly to NC. He took little interest in "family". His main thrust thru life was business, deals, schemes & dreams. He remained very loyal to me and my son thru-out our turbulent years together. We moved 31 times from 1973 to 2012: Cincinnati to Zurich, Zurich to Spain, Spain back to Zurich, Zurich to Atlanta & finally Atlanta to Seattle. Lots of trading houses & suburbs in between. He was very different and very special. So eccentric yet so steady. He was my rock. He is missed horribly. Carol
P.S.: He was married first to Shirley Preston Stein (1932-1976) & then we married in Montego Bay, Jamaica on a diving trip (1974-2012). I will never replace this man.
