Esther and Family,
Our sincerest sympanthy on the loss of your father. Eli was the type of neighbor we should all have the pleasure of living next door. He and my father shared time together eating pasta and fagoli. Eli was caring when my boys came over to cut grass, coming out to talk with them. We will miss him.

Esther and family,
I was saddened to hear that your dad passed away. He and my father Andy Kushner were the greatest of friends. I don't know what I would have done without his help and friendship to my dad after my mom passed away. He truely was one of my dad's best friends. You and his two grandsons were his pride and joy. Now he and my dad can reconnect with each other in heaven watching over us from above.

My sympathy to the family. I used to run into Eli ( many times ) at St Mark's Cemetary where we both visited our departed wives. We talked and became friends. It will seem strange now when I go there.

You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Eli was a good man and a nice man. I always enjoyed talking with him and hearing his stories.
