We’ll always remember Uncle Irv as a man who loved solving problems, loved teaching, and loved his family.


"If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough."
Albert Einstein

My Uncle Irving could always be counted for telling truth with precision, for sharing his love of learning with generosity and for remaining true to his values without pretension.

Words cannot express how very much we miss you. You have always been there for all of us. When my dear Don passed away, you became the head of a combined family. Nothing was ever too much for you. No matter where we were, or what we may have needed, we could always depend on you. We are left with many wonderful and loving memories. You were always so very kind and generous. My sweetest memory will always be the way you greeted and
and kissed, our dear Sally, every morning of her...

Many thanks, Irving for helping, over all those 19 years, our lost physics students to once again find themselves, and for helping some of them to really enjoy physics. Would be good to see a photo posted somewhere here, though.

Dad you were always my hero. You taught us to be honest and to never compromise our values. I thank you for that and being the best father any kid could ask for.
