Devoted brother to the late Ralph Stein and the late Ethel Shaefitz, and cherished uncle of Donald and Hilary Shaefitz and Rhea and the late Stuart Oelbaum.

My sincere condolences to all of the children and grandchildren of my cousin Norman. I shall forever remember all of our family dinners and parties and weddings and just plain phone conversations and I deeply regret not having spent more time with him in the last few years. Rest in peace, dear Norman. Natalie (and Louis)
