Wendy,
I was saddened to hear the news of Ned's passing. Please accept my deepest condolences on behalf of my wife and I to you and your entire family. He was an easy going guy I remember swimming with many years ago... the old adage is true: the best go early.
Unfortunately, I will not be in town this Friday, but will be there in spirit. The silver lining in a way may be that he was doing the thing he loved most, it is too bad I nver had a chance to meet up with Ned again and see the beauty he saw first hand and regularly.
With my deepest sympathies and condolences,
Ravi Bhandari

My hear sinks to hear of the passing of Ned. I am so very saddened to feel the pain and sorrow your beautiful family must be suffering now. I am sure that your brother lives on majestically in the many lives he touched, comforted and inspired.
Yours truly,
Rakesh Bhandari
