I was stunned when Elise called me today. Daddy taught me business in a way that has changed my life. I loved him as a son could only love a father.

His strenth was amazing, remember how often he would make us feel his thigh?

He was smart, funny and loving



I will miss him more than you will ever know.



Love always and forever

My sincere condolences to George's family. I cannot think of another person who has suffered more than George. He lived through the Holocaust and I never heard him complain about it or even demonstrate any anger. I do not think that I could have been such a person.
