I don't know if anyone still keeps up with this post, but I want Michael, Zachary, and Ira's family to know that he has not been forgotten. I think about Ira often and will always miss him. He was a great friend and one of the best people I have ever had the pleasure to spend time with.

Michael, Zachary and Kaye family, I was shocked and saddened to hear of Ira's sudden and tragic passing.

I worked in the Office of the General Counsel at Treasury until six months ago and I found Ira to be a very kind and intelligent man. I knew him best through Tamara's praise of him. Just knowing how fond she was of him shed light on what a truly fine person he was.

I am sorry for your loss. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Michael, Zachary and the Kaye Family! Please except my condolences. Ira was my supervisor and friend. He was a great supervisor and just an all around great person. He had a personality that just made you want to hug him all the time. Just as you will miss him, I will miss him just the same. It has been very hard for me to come to work and not see his smiling face. I will continue to keep you all in prayer. God Bless!

Michael, Zachary, Arline, Jerry, Heidi, and Bobby,
Wishing you all strength from each other. Ira was an extremely special person as you all know. He was blessed to have had an incredible family and to have been surrounded by family and friends who adored him throughout his life. I don't think that Ira ever had an enemy. He was smart, kind, generous, funny and fun. In High School, Ira was the greatest listener and friend anyone could have. I am thinking of you and crying for you all and hoping that you will hold each other up. Love, Freddi
