Carl was a second cousin, and I was his counselor at West End House Camp in the early 50s. His dad, Laurence, was dental mentored by Dr. David G. Klein, my father. I have fond memories of Carl, and we made a brief email "reunion" several years ago. I´m in my mid-nineties and the sole survivor of my generation of the Jonas and Mari Klein family who arrived in the U.S. in 1896-1898 from Miskolc, Hungary. My sincerest condolences to Carl Jonas´s family!

Both of my children were patients of Dr. Perlmutter. My daughter,Julie, was born with 6 missing teeth which he had never seen before. But with his excellent care and 2 dental implants later, thanks to his expertise now has a beautiful smile and straight teeth. We saw him a few years ago at the Edwards holiday party and it was so nice to see him and for him to see his excellent results with our daughter after many years. He was always so kind. The Orr family sends you our heartfelt condolences.
Joan and Stephen, Julie and Chris Orr.
