Dear Phyllis, I was saddened to hear about Ron's passing. Ron was one of the good guys in this world. His warmth, kindness and interest in people stood out along with his impeccable moral compass. I am a legal headhunter and I worked with Ron for over 25 years. It was always a pleasure to work with him and then spend time schmoozing. He spoke about his family often; about his children, Mark and Jennifer and all the grandchildren; and his dad. He loved his shul and living in Brooklyn. I live in Midwood and keep kosher so Ron asked me for recommendations about a kosher butcher and bakery and deliveries. I didn't know you personally but over the years and my many conversations with Ron, I felt that I did. I knew that you were a caring, loving wife and mother and a perfectionist in making things as good as could for your family - whether it was Passover seders or going to Florida for a diet/health plan. I heard about your driver taking you on your errands in Brooklyn, and always to the Orchard. I know that you have had a tough time with injuries prior to Covid. I share this because Ron always wanted to sing your praises and help you. The only small comfort I might give is that Ron lived a full life and appeared to be active in many areas that were important to him. Baruch Dayan HaEmet and may his neshomah have an aliyah and bring hope and light to his family. With deepest sympathy, Belinda Rosenblatt Levavi
