Martin Lanoff wrote a sympathy message

“My dad was an allergist in the far north Chicagoland area and greatly respected your father, though some distance separated them. Through your wonderful and touching words (the Trib obit) he sounds like a very special man in his private life, as well. I am sorry to hear of your loss. Martin Lanoff, MD”
