Dobra:
Deeply saddened to read of the death of Bennett. He was greatly admired by me as he grew up in Alexandria and developed into an investment industry superstar in Washington with Paine Webber and Merrill Lynch. He used his innate intelligence, strong desire to achieve, demanding work ethic and engaging personality to become highly successful in a very competitive industry. His extraordinary achievement will be fondly remembered and effervescent personality will be dearly missed. May his spirit rest in peace.

Dear Dobra and Adam,
My condolences on Bennett´s passing. I´m unable to attend the funeral.
My daugther Ana and George Jr. will be there.
I´ll touch base after shiva.
It is great a loss to both of you.
For the lucky of us that had the privilege of sharing a long time frienship
and work camaraderie over so many years will feel that void as well.

A hug and love to you both.

George, Sr.
