I knew Mr Kline from the age off 22 to 62 until when I left NY. The very first day I met him in Bill Blass's office wearing a Brown suit, I was 22 I said to myself "One day when I grow up, he's going to be my Attorney" he became a dear treasured loved advisor for 40 years, I retired and left NY but my appreciation of Him and dear Harriet will remain with me eternally. Big Hug Mr K

I was thinking of Me Kline only today! . I'm rather surprised to see the email remembering his life. I'd 1st met him as a 22 year old Design assistant to his Client Bill Blass. It was love at first sight. He must've been 50 ish may as well be a 100 to a 22 yr old. As I grew up and had my own business, he represented me until I was 62 and returned to my birth nation. I adored Dear Harriet. They will both live in my heart. Until we meet again

I have just come across this note on Gene. I am so glad he reached the 100 still living life to the full. I looked him up when reminiscing about time spent in New York. He represented our British company in the early 90s and taught this young Englishman how to do do deals in the USA. His teachings sat with me through the next few decades of running companies in the USA. His mind was razor like and there was never any doubt about winning every negotiating point, but it was all done with fun and a sense of humour. My life was richer for having worked with Gene. I also had the pleasure of meeting Harriet and seeing some of her work.
Thank you Gene for all the help and good advice those decades ago.

I will always keep Gene in my heart and in my many memories of time spent with him. I truly understood why my father became such close friends with Gene. My maternal grandfather thought that Gene was the smartest and nicest man that he ever knew and my grandfather had impeccable taste and only gave compliments when they were warranted and true. I learned so much from Gene and his lessons will continue to stay with me for the rest of my life. With continued condolences, Susie Eisenberg Fisch

It is with tremendous sadness that I sign the guest book to say good-bye to Gene. He was the smartest, kindest and most special human along with being my father's best and lifelong friend. I could always count on your guidance, compassion, counsel and wisdom and I will miss you with all of my heart.
