Condolences

Mrs. Fleishman and Mindy - My thoughts have been with you throughout this week. I am certain your Dad appreciated all the time you've had together - especially in recent years as your dedication to his well-being was evident. I hope that being surrounded by family and friends will bring you comfort now.
