I am so sorry to learn about the loss of my mentor Jake Benus. I learned so much from Jake and have such great memories of him-especially his stories about selling fried chicken. What a great person and I feel a terrible sense of loss even though I hadn´t seen him in years. Big hugs and condolences to the family- Sharon, Mia, and Avi.
