Dear Marion and the family,



Your father lived life to its fullest,

and gained the love and respect

of so many.



Therefore, it’s so sad that he had

to suffer so much for so long at

the end. The fact that his death

was a salvation for him is a little

comfort, if any.



No matter how old and sick a

person was, the pain for the loss

is unbearable and the sorrow

cannot be measured.



May you find comfort in knowing

that his memory forever be

treasured.



Love,



Your friends, Shosh and Dania

Dear Schachter Family:



It is with deepest sorrow that we read of the death of Nathan. The Schachter Family was a very important part of my professional life in Montreal. He was always a perfect gentleman and always appreciated whatever was done for him and his family. He was part of a past Generation of Honest, Decent and Godfearing individuals that are almost impossible to replace in our present day world. It is ironic that he passed away on a Friday with the numerical value of 18 "Chai!"



The "Baton" has been passed to the next generations to continue with his high qualities and values.



Sincerely



Freyda (Laster) and Dr. Edward Fellows
