From Ruth Lewis: We are so sad and sorry to hear about the passing of your beloved father, Lewis, yesterday. This is particularly distressing as your father has been such a close family friend to my Dad for as long as I can remember. I am very thankful that they shared such a close and wonderful friendship, and were able to celebrate many wonderful mitzvot and celebrations together over the years, with your mother and mine also. We have always admired your father as a real gentleman, a mensch, a confident, a source of great wisdom, as well as at one time in a professional capacity as dentist to our family.
