I had the pleasure of working with Miguel at The Kosher Gourmet and we enjoyed ribbing each other and he made fun of me when I wanted something outlandish but he always tried to accommodate me. He was a kind and caring man who will be missed. I feel your pain yet I can't help but picture Miguel and my late husband (Z'L') comparing recipes, just joking or talking the talk that they did so many many times. Please accept my condolences and wishes that you are blessed with fond memories.

I am so sad to hear of Miguel's passing. His smile was infectious! He always had a kind word to say about Miyah, made sure she gave him a hug and often asked for pictures. Everything was always wonderful when asked. His kindness and concern over the years has brought much comfort. May his memory be a blessing and bring comfort to all.
