I was saddened to hear of Hal Gelb's passing and wish to extend my deepest sympathy to his family. I worked with Hal for many years at Ira Hechler's office in NYC, and found him to be a most intelligent and gracious gentleman.

I have known Harold and Sylvia only since they came to Edgewood. We shared many dinners together and I heard their pride and delight in their family. The twins were their greatest, most recent delight,but were looking forward to another Great grandchild. Harold lived a wonderful life, and will be missed by all who knew him.

Our deepest sympathy. Wonderful that we got to know Harold over the past several years and grew very fond of him. It's a sad time which surely will be
softened over the years by great memories. May his soul rest in peace. Fondly
