I was so saddened to learn of Simon's passing. I knew Simon for eighteen short years. During that time I saw his business genius and personal kindness.

Dear Sis,
It's taken me a few days to get past the pain of the loss of my hero. Simon was only 10 yrs of age when he, his Father, Mother, Sister and Brother were taken to the Auschwitz extermination camp, but he was the epitome of the kind of person it would take to survive and until his final days, he was a gentle and benevolent man to all who knew him. He will always be my hero and I was very fortunate to be a part of his life as he was of mine.

Dear Josephine and Blanche-

I am deeply saddened to learn of Si's passing.

In the late 1980's, I worked for Carol Cable and traveled upstate NY with Dave Senn. It quickly became my favorite area to travel in large part because of Si and the amazing team at Simcona !

These are memories I'll always cherish....along with Si promising to introduce me to a nice girl to marry....I'm still available so he still has a chance!!

May he rest in peace and may you be comforted with his memory.

Sincerely,

Mike Koshgarian
