Most everyone knows I went to Syracuse. However, a little known fact is that two of the most significant people in my life graduated neighboring Colgate University (as did International Breakfast Group Chair Lucas Meyer and my best friend Dr. David Berger).

They are Andrew Zelman, my "Super Lawyer"  partner and friend for 41 years and David Klein, my law partner for 14 years and first born son of 45 years.

Andy is retiring to enjoy the good life, reading, writing
and golfing, while David took his half of our law firm, specializing in Communication and Internet law, and formed, effective 12/1, a new firm, Klein Moynihan and Turco LLP.

While I am happy for Andy and proud of David I would not be Human if I did not despair that my Colgate boys are leaving.

Life goes on and I am optimistic as to the future for Klein Zelman Rothermel and the Klein family, but I can't help feeling a sense of passages and loss.
