I, my husband John Souchuns and my daughter Rebecca Souchuns send our condolences to the family of Herbert Slotnick. We had been friends of Lew Slotnick for years through work. Lew often spoke of his Dad and I think we may have met at a party for Samuel, many years ago. We have sustained much loss ourselves over the last few years, so my heart goes out to the family. It is a tough thing and takes time to comprehend. I often go to call my Mother, Sister and Uncle and realize that they are no longer there. We must carry on yet hold on to the memory of our passed loved ones. Peace to you. Laurie, John and Rebecca Souchuns
