Arthur Smith, 65, pulls in a sail while his girlfriend, Jeanine Deveau, steers in Sakonnet Bay on Monday, August 18, 2008. Arthur recently sailed to Bermuda to raise money for the "Wish Come True" foundation. He made the trip with his J/30 sloop, "Sheila C.," in memory of his wife of 38 years who died of cancer in 2004. He met Jeanine at a support group for widowers who'd lost their partners to cancer. During Arthur's trip to Bermuda, Jeanine was his navigator and life-line from land, communicating with him daily via satellite phone.
