Dear Aunt Sue, Jennie, and entire Yeroshefsky Family - We are sending our love, thoughts, and prayers to you. Harry was a wonderful man and he and Jennie were a beautiful couple together! I'm so glad I got to see them again this past summer. I enjoyed listening to his stories and his experience in WWII, talking about Hyattsville, etc. And of course I'll always remember him for his world famous Jewish Apple Cake. He shined brightly here on earth and his soul will keep on shining within all the lives he touched forever. May you find comfort always in all the sweet memories you shared with him through the years. God Bless!

Dad - you were the best. You had your hands full with all six of us kids. You pulled us through some crazy times and we all came out on top. You should be very proud of yourself. No matter what - mom will always be taken care of so rest now and I'll see you on the other side playing poker one day. You taught me well. Thanks for all the happy years. I love you!

You were a part of my life for over 35 years, And even though you were technically my Father-In-Law, I always thought of you as my "Other Dad". I love you and will always miss you.
