To Joshua and Matthew and Abby my sincerest condolences. At this moment I could not be sadder nor more grateful to a man who immensely influenced my life. Together with Frankie, he always made me feel at home and part of your family. Perhaps it was a twinkle in his eye or an inflection of his voice, when stessing an important issue of Jewish history or even world history, that made each and every lecture a delight. We all knew there was something special there. Tanchumim from Israel - George
