Formals by the waterfall...

Rabbi K offered Alec this t - as a gift

Alec's speech went well he spoke of his baseball team raising funds for the Susan B. Komen Foundation.  He also gave the "Top Tens Things Learned from Noah's Ark" - my favorite 3 where: 1. Don't miss the boat! 2. Don't listen to critics - just get on with the job that needs to get done. 3. When your stressed, float awhile.

Then after the service - The party started... I didn't look like anyone was having any fun...

Thank you Team Duffy for having us party with you!  We were honored to be a part of Alec's special day!
