He was without any comparison the best boss I have ever had. He was the grand master of diplomacy and a steady moral compass for us all. His disarming, humane laughter and his glamorous smile charmed and melted the tempers of friends and foes alike. It has been a privilege and a thrill to work for and with him those many years in New York and in the Middle East, and even more to become his friend. And it is the last which now is at the forefront of my mind: his caring and his tenderness not only for me, but also for Mona, Emma and Edward. Mona and I will never forget when it stormed at worst around me in the Middle East, how he called Mona every day to give comfort and support. He did much more than standing by his people. He once told me:" Terje, we work in the big world, but we have equally to care about the small world, the world of family, friends and colleagues ." I felt that sentence said so much about who he was, his decency and caring character. His creativity and courage in diplomacy was exceptional, seeing possibilities where others only saw impossibilities. Without his courage and innovative skills the Israeli military withdrawal from Lebanon , and later Syria's pull out ,would never have taken place. I will deeply miss his British understated, soft-spoken mild manners and his seductive African charm. He only once raised his voice with me. We had a disagreement before I went on a secret mission for him to the White House. As I landed in Washington my phone rang. He was on the line to apologize for loosing his temper! There was no reason, but it spoke volumes about his decency, tenderness and caring. Dear Nane, the most deep felt condolences from Mona and myself. May God give you and the family strength in these difficult times for you. Warmest regards Terje Sent from my iPhone EFTA01007405
