I am an old bridge buddy of Sherms’s and live in Seattle. I would drive him to/from our Monday Nite Football bridge games. Those car rides were very educational for me – lists of books for me to read, perspectives on politics, bridge, of course! On night someone brought an excellent bottle of scotch and we imbibed. On the way home we sang “Show me the way to go home, I’m tired and I wanna go to bed….”. Sadly, we lost touch, although we became FaceBook friends this last year. I’m heartbroken to hear my old buddy’s passed. When Sherm & Julie remodeled their Seattle kitchen, we had several feasts on card nights. I remember his 50th birthday party and my miserable Tango dancing.  I miss those days.  “Show me the way to go home…” – Rich Bauer
