Well I think about you on and off as my mind trolls the things I used to do. Mary and I were reminiscing last night and she googled your namely to give me the bad news. Well I know you had a good run because I was there for a bunch of it.....rip Zoltzz. Mike

Zoltz was a fine human being and both family and a friend to all of us here in California. His visits were thoroughly enjoyable, he was generous, caring and was always welcome at the Raskin house in Reseda California. My parents, my brother and I will miss his glowing personality.

Dear Sharon, I only just read the obituary notice for Harold. Eddie (Lynch), my late husband passed away on May 15, 2019, three months before Harold! Yesterday, driving by End's and wondering what or where you were, I decided to search the internet and learned of Harold's passing!! Eddie loved shopping at End's and he and Harold used to spend some time talking about mutual interests! We saw first hand how generous he was to people in need. He was an amazing person and I know he is dearly missed. My sincere condolences to you Sharon and your family. Keep well.

Zoltzz: Unforgettably generous, enthusiastic, animated and loyal with a sense of humor that never quit. We were best buds back in the 80s and what a time was had by all in his wide and varied circle. Colourful doesn't half cover it. He had the soul of a philosopher and the heart of an artist and will be much missed by the many whom he touched. Sharon, I offer you my condolences, my best thoughts and my love.

Harold will always remain in my treasury of memories as he always greeted me at his store in the beaches with warmth. Marilyn Field

I was a regular customer at Ends for many years
and when my daughter died 13 years ago Zoltz
took me outside his store and said a prayer for her and for me. I have never forgotten his care and compassion. Sympathy and condolences to his wife and entire family and friends.

I first met Zoltz in the late seventies through mutual friends Shelley Gaffe and Nissim
Raphael. Lost touch then reconnected when I moved to the Beach in the late 80s. I last spoke to him on one of his trips back after he closed the business when he called out to me on Queen St. Zoltz was unfailingly generous and kind and someone who never spoke ill of his business competitors even when they were less generous about him.
I'm only sorry he and Sharon didn't get the chance to rent that place in England and travel through Europe.

Zoltzee was my cousin. As a kid, I was proud of that fact. I still am today.
We grew up together on Menin Rd. Our two families were the poor relations of the Levys. Back then, I was Tucker and he was Zoltze, never Herald, that wasn't a name that could capture his brash, dynamic, outsized persona. At 7, he was already charismatic. By 12, he was a legend, our Mickey Mantle, able to hit a baseball farther than seemed humanly possible.
Zoltzee and I were fraternity brothers in high school, though neither of us were really fraternity material. We double dated a lot.
We also shared a rebellious distain for the repressive high school education of the late 1950s and early 60s.
The Zoltze didn't go far in school, but he was smart. No one who ever knew Zoltze was surprised that he became a successful businessman, and later in life, an artist.
I left Toronto when I was 19 and lost contact with my cousin. But we reconnected in 2008. We got together a few times; he showed me his store; and we loosely stayed in touch. For no special reason, he would occasionally call me at my office and we would talk, about nothing of great import.
Zoltzee was the kind of character people write books about. Larger than life, funny, strong, passionate, compassionate. We have lost a great mensch.

Zoltz was one of a kind! He was a very unique and caring person, and he brought joy to everyone he engaged with. His generosity and creativity were cherished by those who knew him. My wife and i spent a lot of time in Ends in the beaches, and I always looked forward to having a chance to talk with him for a bit. The world is less bright without him and he will be missed. My condolences to the family, but hopefully they can feel comfort in knowing he was well loved by all who knew him.

Smile, though your heart is breaking...
Love you Zoltz for the decades of smiles.
Sharon, we all should be as lucky to share our lives with someone
as gregarious, generous and challenging as Zoltz. His wings will support you until you can land softly and continue your life journey.
Shine bright my friend.

ZOLTZZ was a very special person. He was my oldest friend. We went back to the earlist days of travelling beside each other in baby carriages since both of our set of parents were friends. He ALWAYS made me smile. Our connection may not have been day to day but it was solid. A kind and generous soul. You will be missed my friend. You left a special legacy for us to cherish.

Sharon and family,
I'm saddened to learn of Zoltzz passing. We were friends and I will remember him fondly. I valued his advice when I was an Alderman/Councillor. A trip to Queen Street, without the expectation of a discussion with him is a lesser thing now.

Zoltzz, what a unique person. Sensitive, caring and oh so funny. He left his mark on those who knew him. The best part, he created a successful business from scratch (with hardly any scratch). I'm so glad that he found happiness and a family to love with (and thanks to) Sharon.

Zolrzz was a brother from the first time we met in the early 70s... And after 25 years of not seeing each other, we bumped into each other when my wife and moved to Toronto. The Beach, and it was in front of Ends where it was like no time had passed. This world will miss this beautiful guy. Peace and Blessings be upon him

A great friend...."absent from the body and present with the Lord". Generous to my charitable causes..... Great sense of humor....Keen business mind. Quite surprised by the suddenness (to me) of his passing.
