Dear Phillip and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Dorothy. Although I didn't know her very well, she used to come to my exhibitions at the Flomenhaft Gallery in NY with you and we used to laugh about what she called her "Hat Hair" when her hair took the shape of the wool hat she was wearing. I also am friendly with Lucy and Irving so I feel connected with you. I hope you will take comfort in knowing what a great husband you were and how your caring and love for Dorothy must have meant so much to her. The Sandlers told me how devoted you were.
With sympathy,
Mira Lehr

It was a pleasure being a neighbor to Dorothy and Philip for the past 8 years. She was always positive and had a great sense of humor. All of our love and prayers to Philip and the family during this time of mourning. The Lunardi's
