I had the privilege of meeting Mr. Gitelman while working at the Dallas VA Medical Center. I was the public affairs officer of the center and Mr. Gitelman was being honored for his WWII service during a D-Day Observance.
I subsequently shopped at his showroom where I purchased some beautiful tapestries which I will always treasure.
He was an American hero and a gentlemen. I was saddened to learn of his passing.
