DKO, You had such a tremendous positive impact on my career and my life. You taught me so many things that I have used for 20 years - so many that I've forgotten a number of them by now. My first 6 years in the business I worked for you at JA Jones and learned most of what I know today. Everything from how to calculate the bond cost on a change order to how to calculate the load on a sheet pile, how to resource load the schedule, tracking unit rates, the best way to present the write-down in the JSR, and even more importantly, saving for retirement and so many other things. You also taught me how to always take the time to teach the next generation. You were one of the best construction engineers that I've ever met or worked with. Thank you for all that you did for myself and so many others. You can't be replaced and will be greatly missed. Rest in peace old friend. JBS
