Howard & Carol:

My heartfelt condolences to you and your family during this very difficult time.

I just heard from my sister in Milwaukee who told me about it.

You were just a great friend and boss to my mother for the many years she worked for you.

I never really knew your children, but my mother had told me many times about your kids.

Our family hopes you remain strong in the tough days ahead.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I have known David for such a few years and saw him such a limited amount of time, as he moved away from the area where we attended the same groups. All I can say is that from the minute we sid hello five or so years ago, I always knew he was a mensch. Everyone here in South Florida is deeply saddened by his loss. He was truly a man of character, warmth, and humor. He is gone, but not forgotten. He will always be in my prayers at the close of my day.

I remember playing "balloon-ball" around his house as kids...until Mrs. Spector broke it up...before we broke the house up! :-)

I am shocked and saddened to hear the news of David's passing. It seems like only yesterday that we were playing kickball during recess at Atwater. My last memory of David was seeing him at our ten year reunion and being moved by the care and compassion he demonstrated in speaking with all of us about the loss of our other classmates. May David rest in peace. My thoughts are with the entire family.
