Sending love from the entire Feinberg family... Chet, Carol, Roy and Nan. We have so many memories of our two families together... spending the high holy days together, Passover with Chet and Irv telling jokes and giving a really short service.... Roy, myself, Bruce and Bill playing together. Chet (my father), and Irv were very close friends. Irv was a great and good man. So generous, big hearted, full of love and had a great sense of humor. He will be missed and well-remembered...

Pearl, I'm so sorry - and that's so weak! I just heard about Irv today and I'm sorry I missed my chance to pay respect to Irv and his family. He was such a mensch. You're in my thoughts. I know this is a tough time.
Regards,

I only knew Irv for a short time, 10 years, but he was an amazing person and so entertaining. I will miss the meals at the kitchen table with Irv, Pearl & Angus, listening to Irv's stories and the looks from Pearl. :)

Bruce and Pearl- Our condolences to the whole family. The memories we have are but a small portion of those Irv made with so many people over the years, especially the last 25. May his memory be a blessing.
