Dear Zipperman and Berkson Families,
Please accept heartfelt condolences on the sudden loss of your beloved Henry. My personal association with your family goes back approximately 15 years, through volunteering in Highland Park with Rachel. My family's connection dates back over 40 or 50 years to the time my Dad and Henry did business together and I heard Henry's name as a child, all the time. On behalf of the family of Herman Mills, as well my own connection through the Highland Park Senior Center, I send our sympathies and wish you comfort as you go through these difficult days. You are a wonderful family and I hope your fond memories will bring you some peace. Best wishes, Marla Schachtel
