    Dear Sonia,
    We are so sorry to learn of Morris’ passing. I always admired him and enjoyed his wisdom on the Temple Judea Board of Trustees. You two were an adorable couple and an inspiration on a life well lived. Much love, Robin and David

    Dear Sonya, Rosie and I have fond rememberings of you and Morris at the P’burg High School banquets and association parties. Rosie remembered you from school days together and whatever you two did as friends. She remembered you to me often during the years past. Rosie died June 27 this year of complications of diabetes, dementia, high blood pressure, and a UTI. And died of a heart attack, very quickly in a nursing home. Wish you well in the days ahead. Found out by Morris’s obit that I am one year ahead of him. George.

    Sonya, So sorry to read of Morris’s passing. Have thought of you both over the years, living on Sitgreaves Street and working at Warren Foundry and you being my first couple to eat my first meal in Carpentersville, NJ. You were a loving couple and enjoyed talking to you.
