THIS IS A MEMORIAL WEBSITE. THE SECTION QUOTED BELOW IS TAKEN VERBATIM from The Securities and Exchange Commission Historical Society. PLEASE VISIT THE LINK AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE TO VIEW THE ENTIRE ARTICLE. IT IS A VERY GREAT SORROW FOR THE REMAINING FAMILY OF RAY GARRETT THAT HE IS NOT ALIVE TO PARTICIPATE IN THESE INTERVIEWS. AS A LOVER OF HISTORY (HIS MAJOR AT YALE), HE WOULD HAVE ENTHUSIASTICALLY SUPPORTED THE FOUNDING OF THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY AND PARTICIPATED WHOLEHEARTEDLY IN HIS OWN INTERVIEW.

MR. BOOKEY: "The other thing that hasn't quite been mentioned -- the real privilege I had, we had -- all of us, we had what was called "The Dream Commission."

"And The Dream Commission was when Ray Garrett was the chairman, and Irv was on the Commission, and Phil Loomis, and Al Sommer and John Evans, and they were the best. The absolute best. Stanley was the director. And they were smart. They were aggressive. They were energetic. It was leadership, and we loved it.

"And looking back, that was the prime time, folks. That was the prime time."
