Not sure what to say?

Yes ... Ruby Waxer was my father. Please contact me at (416) 948-5127. Sorry about Stephen's passing>

I believe that Stephen's father Jackie King Edberg was friends with my father during the Depression. If you have any information regarding Stephen please contact me at [email protected] (Harley Waxer)

Hi Harley Waxer, are you by chance related to Ruby Waxer? -Rachael Edberg Silverman

Was Jackie King Edberg Stephen's father?

Sorry for your family's loss; I worked with Steve in Microbiology at Yale.

Steve was a great scientist. What an amazing microbiologist. I nominated Steve for the BD Award. I do wish I had a photo of that dinner in Boston when I gave Steve that Rolex watch - from Cambodia. He was a strong supporter and advisor for my organization, the Diagnostic Microbiology Development Program, in Cambodia. I miss Steve and his humor and wisdom. I would greatly appreciate it if someone in the family would contact me at [email protected]. My deepest condolences to all of you.

I am so sorry so sorry for the family's loss. May you find comfort through prayer and God's loving promise found at John 6:40.
