Not sure what to say?

I just now came across Dr. Bunzel's obituary. I was a secretary to Dr. Bunzel back in 1987 at the Hoover Institution. I laugh at how we went back and forth on whether a comma came before or after parentheses. He put the typewriter (did not use computer) to use and I loved his old radio blasting big band tunes or jazz in his office. I am sorry for your loss. I am glad I was honored to work with him.

Dear Family, Friends of Jack Bunzel,

We have known Dr. Bunzel as a friend and patient, who was a delight and
always brought smiles and laughter. We also enjoyed sharing Chinese food together.

" In the Love that Surrounds you, May you find Strength.
In the memories you cherish, May you find Peace".

Thank you for sharing his memory with us. We will miss him very much.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

On behalf of my late husband, Paul E. Ash, I would like Dr Bunzel's family to know how admired he was and how he influenced a young, searching SF State student's mind. Paul treasured his Political Science classes with Dr. Bunzel. The last time we met was after one of Dr. Bunzel's speeches at The Commonwealth Club.
Sorry I didn't get to enjoy his gig as a stand-up comedian! Am sure it had some great punches! Respectfully, Henrietta Matzen Ash
