Jorge and I have many times talked of Selby as the pinnacle of the trade. When you apprentice for Phillip Percival, The Dean, and then get hired by Donald Ker you are an All Star.

I met him 25 years ago at SCI at the Safari South tent. SS always has a camp, not just a booth at SCI. Fred Slater introduced us, and I was too much in awe to much more than "hello".

I watched him sit down with a glass of J&B and talk and tell clients stories, a calm unassuming demeanor. Behind that you could easily see he was the man who BTDT.

Selby, Andrew Holberg, Stan Lawrence-Brown, Bunny Allen. All giants.
