Dear Doris and Family,
We would like to send our sympathies to all of you in the loss of Fred. We know it was a long and wonderful friendship you both shared with our parents, Frances and Felix. Sadly too, Felix passed away May of '07.. so so sorry you were not notified. It was so nice to see both of you at our parents 45th anniversary--We know it meant a lot to both of them to see you! Doris, I will call or write... Again with sadness and love,
The Caporizzo Family/Susan Jaras,daughter

Dear McCoy Family,
My family sends their condolences and prayers to all of you. Mr. McCoy was my grandfather's roommate at Beth Israel. He was a very sweet, spunky and funny man. We all pray for you and hope that you all find solace in the fact that he is in a beautiful place.
Love, Candice and the entire Castaldini Family
