I met Louis Orwasher in 1967 when I was a classmate of this son Stanley Orwasher at Eron. Very very nice individual who left his mark on me. Remember him clearly from 1967 and his kindness and sharing.

Our deepest condolences to the Orwasher Family. Jesus ask us to pray for God's Kingdom to come to earth and that Kingdom will replace this world's Kingdom and take away all pain, sickness and death.
