Dear Miriam
I am so sorry for your loss and to hear of Henry's passing. I feel truly honoured to have known you both in business but infinitely more importantly as dear friends. I will hold forever fond memories of long discussions in the corner office and bloody Mary's and cocktail pickles in Michaels place. Henry was an amazing man and I will always feel fortunate and privileged to have had the opportunity to learn from him. The charisma, humanity, wit, analogies and sheer excellence with a slide rule you will never find in any university or business school. Sending you all of our love and strength.

Dearest Miriam, please accept our deepest sympathies at the passing of our dear friend, Henry. His gracious acceptance of me as a friend in the mid 70's left a life long impression on me and affirmed my belief that one could be a mensch in our business and still be a great success. The world has lost a great man.
Though distant in years and miles, you both hold a special place in our hearts. I will miss our phone conversations with Henry's great sarcasm, his humor and his humanity.
Eternal rest grant unto Henry, O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he and the Souls of the Faithful departed, through the Mercy of God, rest in peace.
