Dear Sandy, Gail, Mrs. Brenner,

I was saddened to hear of the passing of your beloved father and husband. I extend my heartfelt condolences to you at this time. I remember Mr. Brenner fondly since childhood as a modest, friendly and genuinely nice man. May his memory be for a blessing and may you be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.

Also, my sincere condolences to the rest of the family -- Lauren, Allan, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, siblings etc.

Sincere condolences on the passing of Lawrence Brenner, ala v'sholom. Those us who may not have experienced the pleasure of his company at least know that the merit of his character is, and will continue to be, demonstrated by the warmth and humanity of his family. May you be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.
