Obe and Betty Nan extended gracious hospitality to me when I was in graduate school and was a close friend of his brother, Arthur. I admired and remember him over the decades and was sorry to learn of his death.

Obe was a good friend to all the Peysers. He was there for Mom after Dad died and then again for me when Mom passed away last September. I met him at the Cosmos Club where we enjoyed a wonderful meal and discussed everything from family, to politics, to publishing, and everything in between. One of the brightest men I've known, I respected him as an accomplished author, editor, and family man. I particularly admired his ongoing zeal to live a busy and fulfilling life even after losing his...
