Did you ever
watch a couple floating effortlessly by on the dance floor, each
partner anticipating the next move as naturally as if they were born
dancing together?
I wasn't Fred Astaire to Dana's Ginger Rogers, but when the music
played, whether we were in our living room or on the dance floor at
the Navy Officers' Club, we loved dancing together.
It is a rare and wonderful thing when your perfect dance partner is
also your perfect life partner.
Danalee was my beloved wife for 26 years and 20 days. She was the
mother of our sons, Patrick and Andrew. She was a woman of beauty,
style, poise and compassion. Her dazzling smile could light up a
room and her elegance and grace as a dancer touched every aspect of
her life. Classically trained as a ballerina and a talented
professional in floral and interior design, Dana was just as
comfortable frying up a little boy's catch-of-the-day as she was
being the gracious hostess of our annual holiday open house. Danalee
was the heart of our home and family. She was my dearest friend, my
passionate soul mate, my butterfly dancer, the love of my life.
