Buzz,

You were a great mentor and colleague while I was a newbie paralegal at the USDOJ Fraud Section. You were instrumental in helping me start down the path to becoming a Postal Inspector, a position I finally obtained in 2005 and have loved every minute performing the duties of for the last +20 years, and a position I now prepare to retire from in the near future. You are still in my thoughts after all these years.
