Anna was my magnificent assistant when she was a student at Columbia, and I was always grateful to have someone so capable, loyal, and exceptional at my side. I thanked her parents for the treasure their daughter was to me.
At the weddings of former assistants, their families often tell stories about the more adventurous tasks I gave them. In Anna’s case, that included a memorable day helping aboard my sailing yacht.
It was a beautiful wedding, and I danced a lot. I fear if they knew what a poor dancer I am, they wouldn’t have invited me. :):):)
Congratulations, Anna and Joe. Wishing you a lifetime of happiness together.
