I attended Conway's funeral and was impressed by his children and how he has reared great young men. They spoke so well of his teaching them great principles. He used wonderful methods to teach good principles. What a great tribute to have three sons attend West Point and praise their father for their successes.
As I remember Conway, he was always kind, with never a condescending comment about others. I recently had lunch with him and, unfortunately, he did not have that same positive zeal for life. As we often do we dwell on the "should have done" verses the positives that are vividly in front of us.
Just as I think of Dana, Steve, Greg and others I have known since I was very young, I am saddened at their short lives. I try to reflect on the positives of past experiences with them, but, it is still sad.
