Yesterday
It was a true honor to meet Mr. David Gentis. He was a very stoic and determined patriarch of the Gentis family. In my breif time knowing Dave I learned though he was a man of few words, his quiet strength and unwavering love for his family spoke volumes. The deep bond and respect shared between him, Sandy, Chris, Josh, and the entire family was palpable-and a beautiful reflection of the legacy he leaves behind.
I feel deeply blessed to have crossed paths with such a remarkable man and the incredible family who surrounded him with love and devotion. My thoughts, prayers, and love are with Sandy, Chris, Josh, and all who hold him close in their hearts.
With heartfelt sympathy, Christina Markovitz
