His very nameMeyerwhich could be translated as lightgiversomehow expressed the light. the warmth. that Meyer brought into the life of others. He looked for the good in others. As Shelley said in another connection. "Life like a dome of manycolored glass stains the white radiance of eternity." I see in Meyer not only his achievements but the capacity to achieve. He symbolized the best of the children of Jewish immigrants to this land. out of humble origins doing so much with their own lives and doing so much for America. He loved this country. It was an inspiration to him.
