Marvin Friedman

I am so sorry for your loss. Comm. Friedman taught me by example when I appeared in his courtroom. I loved learning from him and I had so much respect for him. Many condolences to you and your family.

Commissioner Friedman was a honest person who always made thoughtful decisions on behalf of our youths in our community. He will always be remembered as a Champion for Juvenile Justice. He will be sorely missed.

I'm so sad to learn of Marvin's passing. He and I met in 1964 and shared his Carl Street home (as friends). I have very fond memories. We (he, LeeAnna, and I) had lost contact in recent years, yet he came up in conversation from time to time, and I thought wistfully of him, and of you both in your North Berkeley home.

I share your grief at his loss. Knowing that he lived a good life and left a legacy of love does not lessen the pain of loss, but I do hope that in time, as you...

Marv was truly the kindness, big-hearted person I have ever known. It was a honor and a privilege to work with him for over a decade. He was a fair and generous and thoughtful commissioner, always looking out for the kids' best interest. I'm so glad he had such a wonderful long life with Lee, and I send my deepest condolences.
