That's all very well, but in those days of yore, they didn't have antibiotics, respirators and all the rest of the many ways that medics prolong suffering, as they do nowadays.

May I add my expression of grief to the many messages so far.

It matters not how a man dies, but how he lives. The act of dying is not of
importance, it lasts so short a time.

It is with much sadness that I am writing to report the passing of Steve
Slap.  He will truly be missed.  A service is being held Monday, June 28th
at the
Jewish Community Center in Amherst, MA.  Steve's Mom requests that flowers
not
be sent.  I asked about donations in Steve's name to a charity and she had

not thought about that. Her and Lisa will talk about it.  If I find out
more, I
will pass the information along.
For those of you who might want to attend the service, the center's
address
is 742 Main St.  The telephone number is 413-256-0160.  Mrs. Slap thinks
the
service will be at 11am but that's not definite.  Check with the center or
keep
an eye on the HistoNet, when I find out for sure I will post it.
With best regards to all of you for keeping Steve & his family in your
prayers,
Dorothy
