Dear Rothenberg Family,

I am grateful that Mort touched my life. Conversation with the Master Storyteller was always uplifting, thought provoking and very fun. His broad smile, twinkling eyes and hand gestures punctuated his points and captivated his audience. I hope that your wonderful memories of him will comfort you.

Dear Rothenberg Cousins,

Mort was precious to me and he helped pave the way to finding all of you. Because of the person he was, he added immeasurably to my life, despite the fact that our visits and correspondences were few. He was so fine. From our first contact to our last, he was gracious, warm, generous and loving. I am immeasurably richer for having known him. Words just don’t even begin to suffice. He lives on in me, right next to my Dad, his cousin, Murray Rothenberg....

I met Mort in 2000 at the Alzheimers Association. His wife, Adele, had just passed away and he was looking for help with his taxes. Mort often brought in his famous roses for the office staff to enjoy; he was so proud of his roses and would tell us about how he mixed together a special combination of ingredients to make them grow large & beautiful. Mort was a very dear man and he will be missed greatly.

Bob and Family,

So sorry to hear of your father's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

My most sincere condolences to all. Even though I met him only a few times while working at the Test and Evaluation Command, Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD - he was a man of great knowledge and passion. He will be sorely missed by all.

Dear Betty:
I was so sorry to read about your father's passing. His obituary was beautiful and so insightful. What an outstanding man.
It was good to connect with you a few years ago. God bless.

I'm sorry to hear of his passing. I know these words can not remove the sorrow of the family, but know he is in a better place now.

Bob and Family, on behalf of Richard Saunders and family we would like to express our deepest sympathies and prayers for your loss.

To the Rothenberg Family,

I knew and worked with Bob many years ago.

I am sure that Mr. Rothenberg will be sorely missed.

My prayers go out to you all.
