Bettina, we sold a lot of gold but more importantly your unique personality and idiosyncratic view of the world made it both fun and very interesting. I hope there are no cigarettes in the next world. JB

Baruch Dayan Emet. I met Ms Schwimmer whilst volunteering at Selfhelp. I enjoyed her intensity, directness, dry humor and art savvy. She was a rare bird and I am happy she is at peace.
