Sue & I wish we could be with you now, but are in Indiana this week. Your Mom & Dad were always great to to see each time I stopped by Rubin Steel over the years… so nice, and proud parents. They watched us grow up, and always made me feel good each time I saw them.
I just wanted you to know that I have missed your Dad and will miss your Mom.
Dear Elliot, Steve, and your entire Family,
I am saddened to read of the passing of your mother, Dorothy. Despite your loss I am sure that you have many wonderful memories to help you through this difficult time. My thoughts and deepest sympathy are with you.
Sincerely,
Howard Solodky

Dear Steve and your entire family,
Your Mother was a wonderful Lady. I know She was best friends with my Aunt Jenny. They always had good stories to tell me. I know now she is at peace with your Dad and probably chatting away with Aunt Jenny reliving the good old days! I know you all have fond memories and will treasure them. Both your parents were great people. Steve, you probably remember me at Crooked Oak, when I took care of your Dad, when you brought him in. I will keep you and the entire family in my prayers. It is a difficult time when we become parentless with no parents. I know their Love will sustain all of you.
Sincerely,
Patty Sabatine
Dear Steve and family
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Your mother was a wonderful and special lady and we have fond memories of her. Ethan remembers racing with her down the hall at Brethren Village on Edith’s birthday and doing high fives.
We are thinking of you during this difficult time.
With deepest sympathy
Jonathan, Suzanna and Ethan Golin
