Dear Jack, Joel, Maury and Mara,



I am so sorry for the loss of both your parents. I have many fond memories particularly of your Mom. She always had a smile on her face and in her heart. Family was everything to her, you are all blessed to have had each other. I know I am fortunate to have known her. You are never fully ready for these moments. Remember, you are all living legacies of your parents, they were so proud of all of you. I always loved how your Mom could find the humor in absolutely every possible situation. Both your parents weathered many bumps in the road of life and showed great resiliency.



My deepest condolences and also my congratulations on the new additons to your families.
