Dearest June and family,I worked with Maurice at St. Tropez on union street for a couple of years. He was a very compassionate man. I remember him buying fresh flowers at the flower mart every week, and putting them on the mantle. Mostly he loved gladiolus. June, I always enjoyed our visits when you came to the salon. Your children were small then. Now you have grandchildren. Your so blessed. Thank you Maurice for every thing. My condolences to you and your family. Lina LeMay Rathie

Maurice was a wonderful man and a master of his craft. I am so lucky to have been his client for many years and will always remember how he made everybody feel loved, welcomed, special and beautiful when they came to his salon. Dearest Maurice, I had a ball dancing around the salon with you while you sang to Tom Jones' "Sex Bomb" ! There will never be another like Maurice ! Thank you for everything and my sincere condolences to beautiful June, who was always referred to by Maurice as "my baby". Prayers for the entire family - I will miss Maurice more than I can say.
