Seymour Cohen

To a good friend and physician

Uncle Seymour will be greatly missed. He loved life, his city of San Fracisco, good food, fine Scotch, and good people. He made a career of helping others with their problems. Not a lot of people around who helped as much.

Sy was my neighbor who was always interested and interesting; yet never prying or judgmental. He was the one you are delighted to bump into and chat. Sy even developed a special relationship with my pup. My heartfelt sympathy goes to his family and I hope memories of Sy will bring comfort. I share one which is how lucky he was to have a lived such a fulfilling life, stay independent, spirited, in sound mind and fit until his death. He will remain in our memory and we will miss him.

Sy was my friend for over 82 years, my wife's first cousin, and my brother in so many ways. We traveled to many distant places, which he knew much about. Well read, a life-long learner, energetic, curious about everything, a caring physician, an uncle to the children of his many dear colleagues, a good person.

To know my cousin Seymour is to love him. Ironically, he and my husband, Ted were friends from grade school and he celebrated mightily at our wedding 65 years ago. We traveled the world together and we already miss that deep laugh. RIP
