Dear Nina and Mimi,

I know how much you loved Babe and will miss her! She was a remarkable woman and you were lucky to have her as a mother.

Babe was a dynamo - brilliant, sharp, strong-willed, charming. I really enjoyed our visits and conversations at your home. She had a unique eye for beautiful artwork.

May God's peace and love bring you comfort in the days ahead.

Dearest Nina, Mimi, Susan, and Ron,

It was a privilege and a joy to spend time with your mom over these many years at your house and mine, and on art and theater trips to Mexico, New York, Seattle, Spain, Stratford in Canada, Boston, Los Angeles, and on a Caribbean cruise. Talking about politics and art and family, enjoying each other tremendously.

What precious memories!

And what a loss.

My heartfelt condolences to you, whom she loved so much.

Yours,

Judy Perlman

I am sorry that I never had the chance to meet you...I am glad, though, that you got to meet Sasha! From what I have heard, you were a great woman, and I thank God that we were at least reunited after 43 years!
