| Marc & Family, I’ve been thinking about Mrs. Persip since hearing the sad news. More than any friend’s Mom, I probably saw her the most. She was always very sweet, always inquiring if I had eaten anything and scolding Marc for being neglectful. She put up with a lot, but had a great humor to her and I don’t think I ever saw her get angry (and by my manners as a guest - she had plenty of reasons). She was just incredibly patient and sweet. She was a significant person of my youth. God Bless her. | | from: David Cooperman | on: 02-03-2021 |
