In our work with the Lung Association, I had the honor and pleasure of working with Trevor to protect people across New York from radon gas. My last message from him was a personal note that reflected his kindness and humanity. His last words to me were "All the best" and I should think that would be his intention for all of us, albeit diminished by his loss.
