Hi All,

Thank you so much for your love and prayers. We will continue to need them through this difficult time. Grandpa passed at about 1pm today, on the 17th of Tammuz 5769, July 9th 2009.

This is Molly's Bat Mitzva last summer. Picture taken by Erica. Grandpa always was one for unique hats.


Here are pics of Grandpa with Gramma and Elliot, also taken by Zack at Noah's bar mitzva two years ago.

The Agoura Hillbillies Weigh In

David is a man of few words. He chooses is words carefully, seldom wastes them on chit chat, and when he does say something, you can be sure he mulled over it for a good long time beforehand. Indeed, he has a tendency to analyze all things in life, from the mundane to the great complexities of life. How many people can argue the merits of a good running shoe, and then switch to discussing nuclear arms without missing a beat? I have learned from David that all things in life matter. I always make sure to rinse my can opener after using it, even if just for a can of corn. (G-d forbid David should catch you hurriedly stashing away a used can opener.) I will always thinkof a hand when I arrange my flowers. Even now, in Israel, while hanging up my washings on the clothesline to dry, I think "What would David do?" I imagine David would have a formula as to which would be the proper way todrape the clothing, in order to achieve maximum dryness in the shortest time. I just bet he would. And I would have welcomed his advice.One day we will organize a book chalk full of Davidisms, sort of like Hints from Helouise, only much more realistic.Thanks, David.Love,Linda.

Thanks for all the emails asking us to continue. We will gladly do so.

Grandpa just had morphine for the first time since 5am this morning. He is much more peaceful, but seems to be recognizing less. Joe, Rochel, and baby are here, as are Zack and Wink. Sam gets in at midnight. We love him dearly.
Hey--we totally don't mind and enjoy doing this but please post a comment or start following if you want us to keep writing. Thanks!
