My deepest sympathies to the family. Mort was a colleague at the Justice Department Antitrust Division so many years ago. I clearly recall his energy and intellect. He will be missed.

I have fond memories of Mort when we were at the DOJ. His warm personality and distinct voice added to his cheery personality and infectious laugh. I will miss him.

Deepest condolences to Mortys family. I was a classmate from Lawrence Highschool where Morty set all the records for scholarship. I remember his great sense of humor and ready smile.

His towering intellect was well known and appreciated within rhe Proskauer firm including his impressive roster of clients many of whom became personal friends. It was my very great fortune to have been his partner and friend over the 50 years of our professional and, later, personal lives. Heartfelt condolences to Roberta, Merrill, Amy and Kenneth.

Mort provided me with valuable mentoring at Proskauer Rose. I believe he know how I appreciated lessons his vouching for me to clients, so that when he retired, there was a seamless transition. My sincere condolences to Roberta and all of his family.

We were sad to learn of Morton's death. He was one of the most brilliant students in the Harvard College class of 1954 and the Harvard Law School class of 1957. We send our condolences to his wife and children.
