Not sure what to say?

Absolutely the best boss I ever had. Worked for him at Seventeen Magazine in New York City. Every time I eat sea bass in black bean sauce I think of him! Sad to know he's not with us anymore.

This is shocking. He was my mentor at Seventeen. Always in my corner, always with good advice, always a gentlemen, except on the tennis court. He and Carol were a couple to be admired.

Very sorry to hear of Ira's passing.My deepest condolences to his family. He was a great guy.I always enjoyed talking with him.Arnold, State Cleaners,Westport

Ira was a true gentleman of the old school. It was a pleasure to work with him at Aperture.

Dear Carol,
We go back as far as your fairy tale marriage to that beautiful man. I am deeply saddened that he is no longer here.
I have been in Phoenix for 40 years, including
kids and little ones. Let's catch up!
Meanwhile, may the happy times give you strength.

With love,

Dear Carol I saw Ira's obituary in the NYTimes this morning. So many fond memories of terrific dinners and talks -- always will big warm smiles and big hugs. I now send them back to you, full of friendship sadly disconnected, but still ever present in thought and memory. xgeof

We knew Ira for 40 years - he was a good man, funny and very intelligent. He will be sorely missed and we extend our sympathy to the Garey family. Michael and Judy Jolley
