I had the privilege of being Yuddy's, partner & friend for many years. I learned from him how to practice ethically.....there was no other way to do it. Yuddy was smart, and had a quick analytical mind. His old friends became his clients and his new clients became his friends. That was Yuddy....everyone loved him, while also respecting his accounting skills. I will always treasure our relationship, from the day he came into my life to the sad day he left it.
To Edie, Paul & Joan, Susan & Jim and Jayne & Mark, and your families, I know you each have so many special memories. May these memories be for blessing.

Mr. Shapiro was a breathe of fresh air each day with his bright smile and happy-go-lucky gait. As a mentor, he unconsciously gathered us into his circle where we would find direction. I am very sad by this news, but also very happy to have had him in my life. Rest in peace.
