He was a good man, a better man than he thought he was. And very funny.

[He chuckles a little as a memory comes to him.]

The first time we met I'm afraid we spent the time...[He pauses a moment to recall the new English phrase he'd heard a few years ago.]...taking the piss out of America.

[And then the good humor fades and sorrow reasserts itself.]

He knew what it was like to be a stranger in a strange land. For me, I chose it as a lifestyle. For him, it was a circumstance that he could barely control.
