The highest aspiration of a father -- and his greatest gift to the future -- is children who care. That they love him as well is a double blessing. Against these measures, Rahmo Sassoon is an example for us all.

Dearest Uncle Rahmo, you are gone but will never be forgotten. You always made a point of saying (and acting) that, The first and most important quality of a religious person is to be a good person and good to your fellow man. That will stay with me forever.I try to practice it everyday with you in mind.

We at Ohel Shlomo are greatly saddened at news of the passing of our founder (in many ways), Rahmo Sassoon z"l. May he rest in Gan Eden under the wings of the shechina.
May Hashem comfort you amongst the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.

It is the offspring that guard and nurture the memory of the departed. We feel we have got to know you through the medium of David. The values that you lived, represented and espoused must be what we see in your son.

I am so pleased to have known a little about Rahmo through David's stories when I met him two years ago. In Brooklyn, overlooking the river, I listened to David's beautiful stories about his faher.I asked David just a few weeks ago how he'd progressed with his stories so etched were they in mind. May you rest in peace, knowing you were so loved by your son and his kin.

My husband and I lived in Japan from l956 tol962 and Sassoon was a household name at that time. I did not know Rachmon but we were friendly with David Sasson. My husband Manny (he passed away in l986) may have known Rachman. I am sad to read of his passing and I know his good deeds will follow him forever. My condolences,
