You have always been so refined in every move you make on this board that I have silently admired you and think of you as a model.
Even now when you stated your grievances, you did it in a very courtly way. It helps me look at one more side of the issue without being blinded by rudeness and unnecessary harshness.
I am thankful for your exemplary behavior throughout your ordeal.
I hope I have not given the impression that I am taking sides. All through these days my only objective is to keep the board decent, free of annoyances like hurtful words. In other words, as Geoff said to keep it"convivial".
I consider you a stalwart of AWAD and your leaving will deprive the board of another touchstone.
