A remote shiva visit:

More about our beloved Dad, Father in Law

and Zaidy

We visited Dad just before the kids went off to camp. It was a great time, and he was so lively and beautiful to be with. Here's one snippet of Dad singing "Kinder Yor'n" and you can find the rest of the snippets at http://www.youtube.com/guitargirl4scrabble.
