    In 1970, home from Vietnam, with wife and kids, and no job,
    Sherwin took me under his wing, gave me a job, taught me, and
    we became lifelong friends. Ann and I offer our deepest sympathies to Rhoda and family. Our prayers are with you.

    Dear Rhoda, I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Sherwin. The years have flown by and you have a family of three daughters and a grandchild. I am sure you all are suffering from this loss. I pray you will all be brought through this with the strength I know you have and what Sherwin would expect. You two were the greatest neighbors, and God Bless you all at this time.

    Rhoda:

    I’m so sorry to hear of Sherwin’s passing. It is rare to meet two people so down to earth, funny, and sincere. I always looked forward to seeing both of you, even if it was because of a medical issue. The world is a fair bit poorer for his passing. I know that you have great support and love to get you through this tough time. Always remember the great years that you both had together. I’ll miss him.
