[QUOTE="The Crimster, post: 153572, member: 2511"] [color=red][i]Assuming introductions are made all the way around...[/i][/color] Miles introduces himself. "I met a couple of you at the funeral. My name is Miles Hoffman, and I am a professor of archeology and palentology at UC San Diego. A pleasure to meet you all." He wipes the omnipresent sweat from his upper lip. "Though I wish it were under better... circumstances." Kristof turns to Julia. "Julia, I'm terribly sorry about Alan, although I didn't get a chance to say so at the funeral. I'll try to give you any help I can, though I must admit, Alan never told me much about his collections. Do you know if Alan left a will of any sort, or kept a journal or record?" When he hears Kristof's query about a will, Ray nods enthusiastically. "Yes indeed, that would be helpful. Did he ever mention anything like that to you?" Julia sets down her mug of cocoa and nods. "It's all taken care of. I'm rather well taken care of, I should say." Julia gives a weak smile. "Alan was a logical and precise man. He dealth with that long ago." She stares out the window, watching the rain begin to come down. "A good portion of money went to our favorite charities. Some to a few of our less fortunate friends. Some he set aside some for the school as well." Julia takes another sip. "As far as a journal, I would expect him to. He had a computer, but didn't much use it. I have seen a red bound book that he would often write in. It should be in his office - good luck in finding it. Alan was many things but clean and organized was not two of them. Why do you ask, Kristof? Thinking of writing my husbands memoirs?" She smiles. [/QUOTE]
