Dear Shirley and family,
My heart goes out to you and the entire family at this difficult and emotional time. Lee
was such a terrific man and loving family man who was so proud of each and every one of
you. Whenever I saw him, recently on High Holidays, he was so respectful and
appreciative and kind and exuded warmth and faith no matter what he was dealing with.
May Hashem send his comfort and consolation at this difficult and emotional time.

I did not know Lee all that long; but I will always cherish the conversation I had with him
a couple of months ago at his family Shabbat dinner. What stood out in particular was
how proud he was of his family. You could see the love and esteem radiate from his face
and voice as he talked about his kin.

We are deeply sorry for the loss of the patriarch of your family. We recently saw Dr.
Vogelstein and he merited to always be as sharp as a whip regardless of the physical
challenges in which he faced for so many years. May the wonderful memories you shared
with him be a source of comfort during this difficult time.

Cousin Shirley and Vogelstein families,
So very sorry to hear about the passing of your beloved Lee. He was a huge presence and
will be sorely missed. There are vivid memories of seeing you all at happy occasions

difficult times, especially after the passing of mom and dad. We all are out of town - but
thoughts and prayers are with you all at this sad time. Sending heartfelt condolences and

I am so sorry for your loss. May you be comforted among the mourners of Zion and
Jerusalem. I have vivid and wonderful childhood memories of your whole family around
the dinner table, with Lee presiding, and everyone conversing and disputing so happily
and vivaciously. In later years, he grew even more profound in wisdom, sweetness and
kindness. His will to stay alive, beating all the odds, to stay with his family was
inspirational. I think he drew his strength from your love.

I live in California and just found out about Lee's passing. I grew up on Hatton Road near
Shelbourne and have very fond memories davening with Mr. Vogelstein at Synagogue
Center and playing ball in the streets with Lee and the boys. For an adult, he was a kid at
heart. My condolences to the entire family.
