To the Novack Family
My Thoughts and Prayers are with all of you at this most difficult time. My friendship with all of you goes back a long time. There was a lot of baby sitting and hair trimming done over the years. I will miss the "tea time" Eleanor and I had each month after her haircut. May you find comfort in all your memories. God be with you.
