Howard ... I will always remember sharing dinner and an evening at the Hartford Stage with you and Sari. I admired from afar, the special attachment you had for each other and how friends and family were foremost in your lives. It will be her enthusiasm for life and concern for all close to her that I will remember.

My deepest sympathies go out to the family and friends of Sari. She was an amazing, sweet and welcoming woman. Any and every time I saw her at Adath Israel or at my family's store, she always had a smile on her face and wanted to know how I was or what was going on in my life. She was a great lady and she will definitely be missed in the Middletown community.

Dr. Rosenbaum, I am very sorry to hear about Sari's passing. Please know that your family is in my prayers. What a sweet and genuine woman, ALWAYS having a smile for everyone. My earliest recollection is seeing her volunteering at a Red Cross blood drive many years ago. The world is a better place because of her many acts of kindness. May she rest in peace. Fondly,
