Jack and I send heartfelt condolences to Diana and family. I remember Meb as a true southern gentleman and good friend who was a positive influence in any situation. We worked together during my 11 years with Wachovia in Winston-Salem and I admired the way he approached his responsibilities with an analytical mind, confidence, and a good sense of humor.  Mostly, I appreciate the warm welcome he and Diana extended to us, the two strangers from Atlanta. I'd like to think he'll still have access to golf, UNC football, and NC BBQ in his new home.

My condolences to Bill's family and many friends. During my years with Wachovia, Bill, as General Auditor, was a valued friend, advisor, and colleague. We shared the same views about the importance of internal controls and safeguarding of confidential information. He had the rare gift of executing his duties through a business point of view and it was a pleasure to work with him. I know he will be missed.

I am saddened to hear of Tony's passing. He was named CFO shortly after I transferred to the Financial Division from First Atlanta, so I had the pleasure of working with him for a couple of years. I admired the wit, insight, and innovation he brought to his leadership style. He and his wife were charming and gracious people who personified the Wachovia culture. He will be missed.

This is sad news. Sterling was a friend and occasional lunch buddy at a good Chinese restaurant in W-S. I admired his quick resolution of the sometimes quirky payroll legal issues I encountered and appreciated his help. His wit and cheerfulness brightened the dullest workday. My prayers are with his family.
