This picture was taken in my den. My kids Grandfather, Bert Miller, gave me this bookcase. Bert is a lawyer. Not the silk suit, partner in a prestigious law firm, contract attorney kinda lawyer. He is the rumpled, bright eyed. intelligent, kinda lawyer that spent most of his life as a public defender in Washington DC. He is the idealist that so many lawyers strive to be but sell out along the way. I don't have the vocabulary to convey how much respect I have for him.
He is the real deal.
He was moving to a new apartment and was downsizing. I was lucky to be gifted this beautiful bookcase for my den. One day it will be handed down to the next generation.
--I Love it, and him...
