So saddened to hear that my colleague and friend had passed away. We taught together at the Carter school in the fifties, and our families and children became friends as well. A nicer, more gentler man does not exist. Our sympathies to Anne, Steven, Susan,and Michael.

My sincere sympathies on the passing of your dear husband, father and grandfather. Ben Ostrar was a true gentleman and educator. I can attest to the high calibre of the children he and his wife raised. No greater legacy can any person have. My best wishes.

I was librarian at the Willard School during Mr. Ostrar's principalship. He was always cheerful and helpful and full of good advise for a then young librarian working in a new environment. I extend my prayers and sympathy to the family.
