Dave,

We just learned that your dear Chris passed away and both Malcolm and I want to offer our sincere sympathy to you and your sons and family. I know she was the love of your life, as you were hers. I have such fond memories of our years working together at the Jewish Federation. Your heart must be broken and our prayers are with you. June and Malcolm Hill ([email protected])

Marvin (and Lisa and family)

Please accept our deepest sympathy and cherish all those special times you shared with your Mom. Wish we could be there to give you all big hugs as you cope with your loss- just like you were there for me at work when my Dad passed away from breast cancer. May she rest in eternal peace....
