Ann, Ben, Alex:
Kon was so proud of all of you and loved each of you deeply. I am sure he is looking down on you today with love and pride. My deepest heartfelt sympathies to each of you.
Ann – he often told me how lucky a man he was to be with you and how fortunate he was to have you as his wife and mother of his children.
Ben – we often talked about what a wonderful young man you’ve become and how excited and proud he was of your accomplishments.
Alex – your Dad would tell me how creative, talented and smart you were and knew you got those attributes from your mother – he loved you deeply.
I want to thank you for sharing him with me over the past 15 years. I grew to love him as my brother and he provided me with much joy, happiness and wisdom. I, along with you, will miss him greatly, but I know I am a better person because of him.
Love to you all
