To the Epstein Family
I'm not quite sure if I am sadder for his dying so soon--or If I have been been blessed for having known him so long. We lived across the street from each other in the 1930's and have remained dearest friends for more than 75 years. He will be missed- He won't be forgotten.
Goodbye old friend.

The sudden loss of Mort a dear friend from the South Suburbs of Chicago for over forty years is painful as we send our condolence to his wonderful children and grandchildren. Mort was a care provider for so many people in his life and later became a wonderful caregiver to his loving wife Esther. His memories lives on with all of us.
