Ellen and Family-

I am so very sorry for your loss. On the occasions when I had the opportunity to meet your dad, I could tell he had the Bluestein humor and spirit, and was a joy to spend time with. Please know that all your friends at Filene's are thinking of you.

With deepest sympathy,

Robin Reibel
