My sincere condolences to the Bregman family on the loss of your son/brother. It's been years since I've seen Neal, but I remember him from the old Cornwall St. neighborhood when we were kids growing up.

Dear Anne, Howard, and Sandy,
I am so sorry for your loss. Lenny shared the news with me and it has been a sad day. Wish we could go back to simpler times when losing a dime on the way to the lemon ice truck was a tragedy. My love, thoughts, and prayers are with all of you. Wish I was there to give you a hug.
Love,
Barry

Dear Anne and family,
Wasn't it only yesterday that we were all standing outside Beth Sholom Synagogue on a bright fall morning during a break in High Holiday services? I am so saddened to learn that Neal has passed away. He was always a fun-loving, kind person...at one time or another, we girls all had a crush on him! May your memories of Neal bring you comfort during these difficult days and weeks ahead. In sympathy, Susan Feigenbaum (daughter of Sylvia and Morris).

My prayers are with the Bregman Family. I'll never forget that Mr. Bregman and I shared a fondness for Jethro Tull.
