Dear Sherry and extended family--- So sad to receive the news of Marlyn's passing. She was fierce and brilliant and a true Yiddisheh Neshamah. Her life was a blessing to us all. So happy to have known her over the years. Sherry, I'll be thinking of you in the days and weeks to come. I hope to be st the levayah Friday.

Although it's been more than 25 years since I've had the privilege of seeing Marlyn every few days, to this day when I encounter a difficult person, I still find myself thinking, "If Marlyn were here, how would she handle this person with loving grace?" For those of us who are grieving her loss now, the question is how to handle these encounters--and the rest of our world--without Marlyn.
