Leonard D. Pearlman was truly a unique one-of-a-kind individual. He will be sorely missed by many whose lives he touched. We remember the many good times we shared together including our tennis games, Atlantic Beach, Greenwich, our Shabbat dinners and all the family simchas we shared. We hope that his family will be comforted by their many fond memories.

With heartfelt condolences,
Susan & Phil Sassower
