Oh how my heart breaks writing this. I don’t think there will ever be enough space for me to write what you truly meant to me Mortie.
He meant so much to so many people through the years and touched so many lives along the way. All of his old patients still come into my office and ask me about him. He was the most selfless person I have ever met. Always putting everyone’s needs before his own. He was there for me so many times through the years. Always the voice of reason, like my second dad. My daily visits to him in the hospital and rehab these past few months were not just me keeping him company, but me needing his company just as much. Whether it was just sitting there with him watching the yankee game until visiting hours were over, talking about old times, the drama in my family, or me running up to the hospital on my lunch to bring the Post, tootsie rolls and donuts. I only wish I had just a few more of those visits.
You put up a really tough and long fight my friend. May you now Rest In Peace. I will carry you in my heart always...
