Dear Mrs. Barbara Holtzman and Family,

Sending you my deepest sympathies for your recent loss.

I have fond memories of frequently babysitting for Mollie, Billie, Harry and Barney when you all lived on Kleindale. Your family was always very nice, and I had great respect for you and Dr. Holtzman.

Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

I loved and greatly respected Belle, a co-hostess for a bridal shower given me when I married Stanley Holtzman, brother of Sandy and son of Betty & Coleman Holtzman. I felt the same about Barney and Uncle Morris and all the Holtzmans that I came to know. I even attended TAHS with Stuart who became a cousin by marriage. The few times I saw Belle after she had lost Barney and then remarried, she told me how very happy she was and it showed on her face. My sympathy to Belle's families who have lost a beautiful soul and may all of you retain your lovely memories of her
