Not sure what to say?

We miss your beautiful smile, wonderful wit and joyful humor and your daily phone call. RIP dear friend

I wish to convey my most heartfelt sympathy to the Sakowitz family fo the loss of their matriarch. I had the privledge to work for both Ann and Robert in an accounting capacity and I always enjoyed my chats with Mrs. Sakowitz. She was as sharp as a razor and a lovely, lovely person who will be missed but never forgotten. Robert you and your daughters are in my prayers. - Susan Garlington

Dear Mr. Robert, Ms. Lynn and family - As a long time Sakowitz employee (1967-1981), I cherish my memories of your lovely parents. When Mr. Bernard came to the Post Oak Store, sometimes he would ask me to drive him around to the different stores in my bright orange Firebird...Years later, I would assist Ms. Ann at the River Oaks Bookstore and remember her wonderful sense of humor and laughter. May all your wonderful memories of the love and laughter that your family shared through the years...

The funeral was absolutely an outstanding tribute to her. It was elegant and the speakers were so dear. I know she would have been proud.

My sincere condolences to the Sakowitz family. I had the pleasure of working for your amazing department store. I have such fond memories of my job with the Sakowitz team. I learned so much from all of you. May all theses wonderful memories bring you comfort and much joy.

We are sad to hear about our dear friend Ann, We have missed her since we moved from Houston and thought of her so very often. Such a lovely graceful lady.

She hosted a farewell party for us when we moved from Houston to Sun City, Georgetown, Texas.

In 1967 when we moved from Orlando, Florida to Texas I remember one of my first impressions of feeling like we were really in Texas was when I shopped at Sakowitz Post Oak (we lived in an apartment right behind Sakowitz...

My heart goes out to the Sakowitz and Wyatt families at this time and in the days head. My working career began at Sakowitz in the early 70's. I have great memories and learned so much about the fashion world. Mrs. Sakowitz, a beautiful woman, was always gracious and well dressed.
To the Sakowitz family, cherish your memories, as I know there are many.
