It is with great sadness that we note that our classmate (and NYC class lunch table co-organizer) Robert Shapiro, husband of Connie and father of Phillip and Elana, died on May 27 at 4pm. The funeral was held Thursday May 29, at 10:00 A.M. at Riverside Memorial Chapel, 333 Amsterdam Avenue at 76th Street, in New York City. (212-362-6600).
The family will be sitting shiva this weekend and early next week at home as follows:
Saturday, 9:30-11 pm
Sunday 1-6 pm
Monday 4-8 pm
Tuesday 4-8 pm.
Harry Levitt, Tim Powell and I plan to be there at 1pm Sunday and hope other classmates can join us.
The family has asked that donations be made to the Slifka Center at Yale or the Calvin Hill Day Care Center in lieu of flowers.
Those who knew Bob have begun to leave their thoughts on his memorial page (click here to visit), and of course you’re invited to do so too.
