Fred Stein wrote a sympathy message

“Mom was a strong woman who believed family was very important. The holidays and family gatherings was something she always looked forward to. She was outgoing and had many friends. She was always active and made "Else`s Shell Crafts", clocks and decorative holiday sweatshirts and loved tending her beautiful flowers. Mom lived through interesting times and her generation is an example in life we would all benefit in following. We will certainly miss her and her love and devotion to family.”
