Dear Mrs. Levien, Tom, Jane, John, and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Some of my fondest memories of summers at Boatmans Harbor are of Mr. Levien. He was a kind and generous man, and always greeted people with a smile. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

MY deepest sympathy to you and your family. I am truly sorry for your loss. Charles was avery kind and generous man. I remember him giving Jay a car at no cost just after Jay' car stopped working. It was a mitzvah

Mrs. Levien, Tom, Jane, John and family,
I was so sorry to hear of your loss. My family has only the fondest memories of Mr. Levien from Boatmen's Harbor Marina. Whenever I visit the marina, I can almost see all the wonderful people we knew there, hopping on and off the boats, barbecuing, hosing the boats down, relaxing under that big tree...and he is always present in that memory with a big smile. I will never forget him. Doreen Metzner (Washington, D.C.)

Dear Mrs. Levien and Family--There are no words to describe such a kind and loving man as Mr. Levien. I remember as a kid out at Boatman's Harbor Marina you having the "biggest" boat there and how kind and fun you all were. When my parents met you, it was a bond that never broke and still continues. Friends and family you will always be. May God Bless you in every way possible. Our deepest sympathies to you and the family. The memories will always be strong in our hearts.

What to say about a man who left such an impression on all who met him. I have been with Yellow Book over 30 yrs and I always think back to when I met Charles. His presense was strong but you knew he was kind and genuine. His wise advice helped me through my early years at YB. You will be missed!

Dear Levien Family - I met Mr Levien and his son Tom in 1984 when I started my career at Yellow Book. 27 years later, I am still here and I thank Mr. Levien for giving me a chance. I found Mr. Levien to be a kind and fair man, and I will never forget the family atmosphere he helped create here at Yellow Book. I extend my deepest sympathies to the Levien family.
