Memories and Condolences
for Edward Bazelon

Not sure what to say?





On the anniversary of Edward Bazelon´s 05/21/2021. It gives me strength today that I knew Edward Bazelon. I am blessed to have known him. My mother is 95 now and was put into an assisted living facility in Palm Beach Gardens Florida by my younger brother Scott. It was not something she wanted to do. I feel like I have lost my best friend. I am going through a terrible time. So remembering Edward Bazelon today gives me strength that I can make it. I lost another neighbor that I grew up with besides Edward Bazelon this year. Elaine Izaks died this year. I am all alone in Arizona. I will keep the spirit of Edward Bazelon close to my heart to give me strength. Edward Bazelon was a great man.

On the anniversary of Edward Bazelons death I would just like to say what a fantastic and special person he was. I am very sorry that I dont keep in touch with Jackie, Nancy and Gary. I hope that you all are well. My mother Blossom Weller is now 93. It is especially difficult to see your parents get older. I am alone here in Arizona and I would love to hear from any of you. My best to you all always. With much love to you all always. Franci Weller Chandler, Arizona

I just happened to think of Edward Bazelon today and decided to google him. I was so sorry to see that he had already passed away. I have such fond memories of him and his wife Jackie Bazelon. I grew up across the street from the Bazelon family. I am a year older than Nancy Bazelon. I literally grew up in the Bazelon home. Edward and Jackie used to take me to Florida on vacation all the time during my childhood. Memories that I treasure and will never forget. I remember "Buddy" Bazelon. The Bazelon family was a very special and loving family. I was truly blessed to grow up across the street and spend so much time with such wonderful people. My family did not move away from living across the street from the Bazelons till after I graduated from college. I remember that it was especially hard for me to move because of the love I had for my neighbors the Bazelons. Edward, Jackie, Nancy and Gary - you are in heart and soul forever. I love you all very much.

To Jackie, Nancy, Gary and family,
We all will remember Eddie with warmth, humor, fondness and love. Eddie was a person whom you never forget; he was so kind and caring to Shel and Lynne, and a dear loyal friend. We shall miss him.
Love, Brad, Shiva and Dani
