Ken, Carolyn alerted me to the fact that your dad had died. You have my sincere sympathy. From the write up it looked like he had a full life.

Mr. Rosenblum was my father's roommate for a very short time at Sungarden Terrace. Both my mother and I remarked often about what a handsome man he was and we wondered about his life. I am so glad that he was a part of ours if even for such a brief amount of time. My father also has Alzheimer's and we should never forget the wonderful, full lives all of these beautiful men and women lived.
