		Dowd had great ears and a big heart; few figures in our business were so universally loved and respected.
		Up until his last days, Dowd had a twinkle in his eye and a good story on the tip of his tongue — he was quite the raconteur, his sharp memory overflowing with anecdotes about the business that he loved so much.
