I am so saddened by Bryant's passing. This is a loss for all fortunate to have known him. He was the kindest, and most loving man. He was devoted to Sandy, his children, and grandchildren. I can't remember not having him in our family. I remember when he and my cousin, Sandy, met. That was back when the family lived on Parkside. My thoughts and prayers are with Sandy and the family. Rest in peace, Bryant. You were the best of men.

Dear Sandy and Family,
My condolences to you on the loss of Bryant, one of the nicest and kindest people I ever met in my life. We 1st met in 1951 when we entered Law School. That year, Bryant and I drove to NY with 3 other guys from the class and saw 3 plays, standing up as it was cheaper. That summer, I went with him, Jerry Wisbaum and his mother to Kent for his graduation. We then took his mother to Cleveland and she went back to the Falls. The 3 of us went to Atlantic City for Labor Day weekend and saw Marilyn Monroe as the Grand Marhal of the Holiday Parade. I often met him for dinner at the Como with my date for a 5 course meal for $2.75. I assume their price may have increased. I can recall all of these things, but may not remember the events of yesterday.
I last saw Bryant and you at our 55th reunion. He was always such a warm, pleasant individual.I am sure that the many pleasant memories that you have of him will provide strength for you to go forward in the coming years. My deepest sympathies to you and your maily.
Fondly,
Vic Silverstein
