Rosie, Martha, Linda and Howard,
I am so deeply saddened and shocked to hear about your dad. He was always a great boss, but more than that a really great friend. I know he will be missed by so many people...everyone that knew him..loved him.

Rose,

My condolences and prayers are with you and the entire Hillstrom family at this difficult time. I know what you are going through as I just lost my husband in June. I worked with Paul at Burgdorff. He was a true gentleman.
