I am so sorry to hear of your great loss. My husband Michael and I worked at the F&T in the mid-'70's at the beginning of our marriage. I have many happy memories of working behind the counter making sandwiches. A delightful place to work in and Maynard was so energetic, intelligent and full of life. Here's a belated thank you for helping to make the first year of our marriage such a happy one! You are in my thoughts and prayers.

My sincerist condolances to Shari and Andrea and their families.

As a past bartender at the F&T I have very many fond memories..

Mr Tishman was a fine generous addition to the human-race and his special personal sparkle is a real loss for all of us.
