To Dan, Dave and others related to Esther Rozar,
Your Mom will be missed at meetings and meals that she attended with one or more of you.
While 2-24 was my birthday, most of the day I was in Columbus, OH in regards to social advocacy. I got the newspaper with the obit. in it just before going to visit my dtr. who lives in Old Brooklyn. It was 7:50 p.m., so it would not have been possible for me to attend the service. I had heard of her loss by Rick Huff. Your family will continue to be in my prayers.
