Ellen, we send you and your family our deepest condolences. I met Ben at Walter's home, as Walter had invited me to be part of his minyan when he lost his mother. I remember that when I met your husband, I said, "Oh, your Ellen's husband!" and he laughed, remarking on how the roles had reversed when, so often, you were "Ben's wife." We will keep you in our prayers.
