Not sure what to say?

I was saddend to hear of Rabbi Wise's death. He was my childhood Rabbi at Rodeph Shalom and was personally helpful to me on a number of occasions. He was a wonderful man, learned, wise and kind. He made a difference.

I was sorry to hear of the passing of Rabbi David H. Wice. I worked for his son, David H. Wice, Esq. for many years. Everytime Rabbi Wice came to visit his son, he would bring me either fruit or candy. He always had a pleasant smile and demeanor when he would stop by my desk. He was a sweet man and will surely be missed. God bless you Rabbi Wice.
