Dear Aunt Ruth, Stewart, Irwin, Molly & kids,
The entire family is feeling such a great sense of loss with Uncle Sol's passing. So many great memories will continue forever of our kindest and most beloved uncle.
Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time and very sorry to be unable to attend tomorrow's funeral in Rochester.
It was good that you were with him at home.
We said kaddish for Uncle Sol last night.
love,
shabe, earl, and Uncle Red

I remember vividly, playing basketball in the driveway after school in the late afternoons and Sol driving into his spot on the round driveway in his Mustang. He had his Monarch shirt on that had been soiled with the days work and a few cigars in his front pocket. Sometimes he would take a few shots with us, but mostly a friendly greeting and into the house to get comfortable and ready for dinner. Those were the good ole days of the early 70's. Life was simple and complete--we'll miss you Sol.--Jim Costanza
