Marcia
I am so sorry to hear of your husband's passing.
We will miss his wonderful reviews in the MJS -- even though I never met him, his personality shined through in his work. He was a gem.
Take care,
Dawn Herzig Oshkosh, Wi

Paul,

I was shocked to hear about your father's death. I remember you as a wonderful student at King and certainly your father (and mother) contributed to your growth as a responsible and kind individual.

My condolences to you and your family.

Dear Paul,
I miss your dad; he was always so kind and gracious to me, and always gave good suggestions on where to eat.

Paul,

I am very sorry about your father's passing. I really enjoyed reading his reviews and listening to him when he was a guest on a radio show. His dedication to his work was very apparent. He will be sorely missed by the entire Milwaukee community.

I knew Paul when he was a student at King, I met Dennis at conferences and enjoyed him immensely. Your family is in my thoughts.

Paul,
I am so very sorry about your dad's passing. My father died last March, and even at his age, his loss to me has been severely felt.
I have a sense of how you are feeling.
I tried to reach you by your old email address. Could you give me your new one.
With love and fond memories you and your dad at parent conferences.

Oh how I loved reading those reviews! I was never one to have much money, but you were so articulate that I felt like I was there tasting things with you. There'll never be another like you. To your family..my sympathies.
