Not sure what to say?

He was always so kind and generous to me when I would visit him and Nancy with Ian. Its been years since I saw them last but visiting them were some of my best memories of living in Boston. I only can say how very sorry I am for Nancy, Ian and the rest of his family. He was one of a kind.

Our thoughts are with the DeVore family. Many memories of Irv--we almost expect to see him visiting on Halloween to overlook one of his creative masterpieces of street theater!

Lovely, honest, so fine a remembrance! Irv taught me the scientific name of those cheeky vervets in Mara Masai in 1972. I remember the resonance of his voice, and the cheer in his eye.

Our deepest sympathy to the Devore family. May you find peace and comfort as you reflect on the life of your dear loved one.

Too much to say.. I just want to hug the family.

My condolences to the family and friends.
