Hello Aunt Judy, Stacy and Brad; Although it has been many years since we all talked and were together I have the fondest memories of your husband, father, and my Uncle Ira. As I kid I remember thinking how handsome he was and he was always funny and so nice. He asked lots of questions and was concerned about what was going on in my life at family events; I always looked forward to seeing him. Maybe he never knew that I felt that way, I hope he did and at least I can share it with you now. I am so sorry to hear of his passing; I will always remember him; and I know those nice memories will stay with me, and hopefully comfort you forever. He was a special man; may he rest in peace. Love Debbie
