Saying Goodbye

The first part of this trip will be to say goodbye to my Dad, Father-in-Law, friend and one of the world's great travelers. There was nobody like Bill. I had the good fortune of traveling with him about half a dozen times.
This quote from Kipling's poem If describes not only Bill in the first half but myself in the second:

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,   

    Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

    If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

    With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,   

Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,   

    And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!
