Reggi Marder

Dear Eppstein and Marder families,
I just today heard about the astounding loss of Reggi. She was such a bright, comforting and genuine presence so many people's lives. I hope that that her love for you all sustains you and gives you strength in the years ahead.

I am terribly sad to learn of this devastating news about Reggi. I will always have deep and fond memories of my neighbor and friend and wish Nancy, Daniel and Mr. and Mrs. Marder my deepest sympathy.
Eric, Nora, Wylie and Jacky Gross

Joe, Marv, Lyla, Nancy, Daniel and children,
I do not know what to say except all who knew Reg had a special place in our hearts for her. I send all my love and strentgh to each of you. Katie Gunn

Reggi and I go back to the days of Hebrew school where "Malcah" really was a queen. Years later my family had the privilege of becoming the Marder's next door neighbors. I grieve with you and pray that you can find strength in one another. Yehe zicra baruch, may Reggi's memory be blessed.

I'm so sorry to hear of this loss. I remember walking to school with Reggi about 40 years ago. What a warm and memorable person, whom I can still picture with affection from such a time distance.

"We never know the timber of a person's soul until something cuts it deeply and brings the grain out strong." Just how deeply Reggie's life cut into our grain remains to be seen as we learn to live on without her. How ironic it is that my last conversation with Reggie just a few days before her death centered around making changes in our lives. Little did either of us know how sudden and drastic those changes were about to become. We at MATEC-WI pledge to continue the good work she fostered...

Joe:
Reggi's compassion for and ability to connect to so many is evident by the entries in this book. That her spirit shined so, can only make your loss and your children's loss that much greater. My condolences to your entire family.

Knowing and working with Reggi was a privilege and honor. She was one of those rare people who saw and brought out the best in everyone, and we will greatly miss her light.

To Joe Ilana, Sarah and Eitan.
Truly a sad time. Reggie was "the salt of the earth". She will be sorely missed and I am sorry for your pain.
With a heavy heart...Lisa D'Angelo-Kupferberg
