Ruth, I just heard about Rashi today. I am so very sorry. He was a lovely, lovely man and he helped me so much with my show, Your Health Care:Choice or Chance?". In fact, he was my first guest and was so terrific, as well as sitting on my board. Take care and please know that I am thinking of you and your family. Ellen Kagan

Ruth, Alan, Michael, Karen, and families,
I as so terribly sorry to hear about Rashi's passing. He was a wonderful friend and I will miss our conversations on the screen porch at Lake George over a cup of coffee or a glass of water. He always made me laugh and left me in awe of his incredible memory of events and details. We had many conversations on about every topic imaginable over the years and I always admired his knowledge and opinions. He will be missed terribly. The world lost an incredible man that contributed so much and I lost a great friend. Our thought are with all of you.
Kibby, Michele, and Brooke

I am so sorry for your loss.

I only met your father a couple of times, though through knowing his daughter I know he was quite a special man.

You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
