Not sure what to say?

When I first started working for SOHIO around 1980, Erwin was my supervisor. His first direction was to drive to the Toledo Refinery and solve problems (and buy them lunch to grease the wheels of cooperation); pretty self directed instructions but he was a self directed problem solver, independent thinker and quite a character himself. One funny episode; he was teaching a class and was demonstrating the pour point of a crude oil sidecut and was showing how it was solid at room temperature....

Dear Buchwald Family, please accept my sincere condolences. Erwin was a great resource and technical mentor when I worked at the Lima Refinery for the Standard Oil Company. My colleagues and I often reflect upon our work (and lessons) from Erwin. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Marianne Corrao

Our deepest condolences to you and your family.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers to you and your family.

Condolences to the Buchwald Family. How great that he got to share his life with his children and grandchildren, and tell all of you the stories of his 96 years! Treasure them and tell them and know that his spirit is with you always.

My deepest condolences on the loos of your father. I had the privilege of meeting him and your mother a couple of times.
