[ARETE] McGehee

[joyced1001 at cs.com]

Richard McGehee had to keep telling people at every conference that his surname was pronounced "McGee," as in Travis.  Despite our difficulty with remembering that fact, none of us had difficulty remembering Dick and his wife and constant companion, Minel.  It was almost as if their two names were combined into one.  How beautiful to see them together, how wonderful to sit down and have a meal with them, to query them about their long drive to the conference and ask about the details of the latest translation.  I still remember "busier than a one-armed astronaut."  Will we all ever be the same?  Don Johnson
