I was privileged to know Henry. He was loving, learned, humorous, wise and generous. I treasure our time together: we explored ideas, he kvelled about this family, found common political ground and made Shabbos a treasure. Henry had the ability to examine matters critically yet not distance himself from engagement.

He bore his illness with dignity and strength. He was a pillar to our community and will be greatly missed.

Our thoughts and sympathy are with you and we will think of Henry often and fondly.

Dear Maxine and Family. My thoughts are all with you this evening as I read with great sadness the news of Henry's passing. I knew him for only a short period in terms of years but he made me feel as if we had been lifelong friends. eing with him in shul and davening with him was an enriching experience for me. We don't replace people like Henry, but we can emulate his spirit and remember him in our prayers and he will live eternally in our hearts and minds. Bob Epstein.

To the Epstein Family,
Reading about Henry's life, one is struck by the extent of his brilliance, passion, warmth, and humanity. We see these qualities reflected, too, in his very accomplished children. We trust that Henry's character will carry on for generations, much as his keen scholarship has been an enduring gift to the worldwide medical and scientific community.
May Hashem console you in your loss and bring abundant joy into your lives.
Sincerely, Neil and Susan Thalheim and family

Perhaps I was looking for the wrong thing. I extpeecd a book on how to relieve stress with quick little games to do at the beginning of a business meeting. Instead, the games' in this book sound more like therapy sessions. Most are meditation and message exercises.One example: The Glittering Roof, where you have everyone close their eyes and you, the facilitator, read a 2.5 page verbal fantasy' in a calm and soothing voice to the group. At the end, everyone discusses how they felt. There are many exercises like this in the book.Another example (my favorite): The Beastly Boss. Again you start the group off with breathing and imagery exercises. Then you pair everyone off. One person assumes the role of Beastly Boss. The other the role of Exemplary Employee. The Beastly Boss then acts insensitively' while the Exemplary Employee employs more breathing and imagery techniques to remain cool. Then they switch. Puh-leez! Can anyone think of a quicker way to be sent to a remote location than to try this on your co-workers?This is not for corporate profesionals
