I always got a kick out of the way you etched film to make a color correction. 1520 Montana will always be an eventful memory for many. Thanks.

Our deepest sympathies to the Gruen family . My uncle Jack and aunt Jean Heiman always talked fondly of both Al and Lotte and they shared lots of special memories with them. Also my parents, Margo and Fred enjoyed being with them on so many occasions. Al was always somebody to look up to and he shared alot of his generosity with the Jewish community.
