I met Bert several years ago in Marblehead. I remember his lovely wife Norma and other Adelsons when I worked at LH Rogers in Salem. My sincere thoughts are with you as you face this loss.

Bert was a long time friend and customer. I have known him for over 50 years. I first met him when I was 16 and delivered trunks to the store at the Biltmore hotel. We rode home together for many years while I was living in Marblehead. A gentleman, a friend and a "mensch".
