Dear Sy ...We are sorry that we can't be there to bid our good-bye to Sandi who was a long-time friend and who reached out with kind acts so often over the years to our parents, Bernie and Will and to us. We have fond memories and are sad that she has been taken from you. Hopefully the many wonderful memories will help you, Alan and Mindy through such a difficult time.
Our love, thoughts and "gentle hugs" (as Sandi used to say) are with you.
