This summer Prestwick House publishers lost a good friend and a valuable employee.
Paul and I were the same age and we lived through (and survived) many of our generation's highs and lows.
He was my first choice for the cover of Prestwick's A Midsummer Night's Dream book cover and as I new he would, brought to the photo-shoot his self-deprecating sense of humor along with a willingness to do it right the first time around–which he did–and far beyond my expectations.
Not too long before he passed away he posed for our yearly in-house "class photo" collage. Since we had the props and costumes still available to us from the newly shot Treasure Island cover–this year's theme is "The Pirates of Prestwick". The photo below is from that session.

Rest in Peace, Paul. We miss you...
You will embark on a fair sea,and at times there will be fair weather, but not always.
You will meet storms and overcome them.
You will take it in turns to steer your boat through fair weather and foul.
Never lose courage.
Safe harbour awaits you...in the end.
