KELLNER--Dr. Irwin L., passed away peacefully at home on July 31, 2022, at the age of 83 of Parkinson's Disease. Beloved husband of Ann for 61 years, cherished father of Lori and Shari, devoted father-in-law of Jeff, adored grandfather of Sam, Marli and Olivia. Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, he enjoyed a successful career as an internationally recognized, published economist and financial columnist, who was often quoted and appeared in all forms of media.

I've known Irwin from way way way back when we both worked at Philip Morris; he talked a lot of Ann and always did pencil car designs. We were in touch when he was at Manny Hanny --- after that, every now and then. He was a wonderful colleague and I respected him as an economist, columnist and teacher. Rest in peace Irwin. Always, Ruth
