Dear Jim,

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Golden Hill Cemetery and the volunteers at our Annual Hill Clean-Up Day, I wish to take this opportunity to thank you for donating the wonderful water bottles.  The Clean-Up Day was very warm and the work was strenuous ; the water bottles were much appreciated!

I personally want to thank you not only for the bottles, but all the kindnesses and support you and your family have extended to Golden Hill for so many years. I consider Feldman Mortuary and the Cohen family not only working partners, but more importantly, friends.

I wish you and all your loved ones a most pleasant summer.

With best wishes,

Neal S. Price

Dear Mr. Cohen,

We want to thank you so very much for your generous gift to JFS in memory of Grant.  We can’t tell you how much we appreciate your taking care of all the arrangements in Denver!  Thank you so much for thinking of us.

Love,

Kathy and Darryl

Jamie-

My congratulations to you and to Feldman’s.  The transportation, services, burial and catering were amazing.  Completely first-rate for a first-rate guy.  I loved my father very much and was so gratified to see the outpouring of emotion and support from family and friends.  I tried to give Rabbi Sarah an honorarium and she refused saying that she could not accept it but to make a donation to hospice which we will do.

Thank you for all the remembrances.  So kind of you.  I will light the candle.

The honor guard was such a special touch and the playing of Taps.  Our Colorado mover is going to make a case for the flag and a few mementoes.

I will never forget this.

All my best,
Judith

Dear Jim and Feldman’s staff-

Thank you for the care you gave our mom and wife and the patience shown to us during this difficult time.

Sincerely,

The Friedman Family

 Thank you to everyone at Feldman for the donation in my father’s memory to Jewish Family Service.  And thank you to Jamie for the caring and kindness in planning and to Kenning at Dad’s service.

Ellen Brown

Your kindness and generosity and all that you did during the funeral preparation meant so much to us at a very difficult time.

Irv and Cathy Rell

Brooke-

The part of the service by Feldman’s was perfect.  We thank you for all of your assistance.  It is a difficult time and we are extremely sad to have lost such a special mother.  Brooke, thanks again.  The flowers were beautiful and I think you for keeping the pink roses fresh until that part of the service.

Susie Curry

Thank you all for all the special care and perfection you gave us with the loss of Janet.  The contribution to Jewish Family Service meant a lot to us.

Chris, Jay and Jourdan Block

Jim,

I wanted to take this means of thanking you and your staff for the compassionate yet professional service we received as we prepared to say goodbye to Danielle.

All you — yourself, Larry, Kenny and Jamie — were so nice to us and made what could have been a difficult task as easy as possible.

I’ve never, fortunately, worked with you in that capacity, and I now have a new depth of respect for all of your personally and for your work standards.

Thank you again for your generosity of spirit.

Larry Hankin and the entire family of Danielle Heyman

Dear Jamie,
Than you so much for bring a shiva candle to my home last Tuesday.  The candle has finished burning and it was comforting to me and my children to perform this ritual and honor my grandmother and her memory.

It is always such a blessing when someone goes out of their way to give us a gift of time and care, as you did.  We will be sure to pay it forward when life presents the next opportunity!

Sincerely,
Kerry Philo

Dear Jim and all the great people at Feldman-

Thank you for remembering Susie with a contribution to Jewish Family Service.  It was one of Susie’s favorites because they have activities for our daughter.

Thank you again,

George Cohan

Dear Jamie,

Our deepest thanks for all your professional know-how and support during these last few weeks.  Who knew our family ties were going to be so important and so special?

We are especially grateful to you for the flawless funeral arrangements you carried out.

Thanks too to you, Jon and Danny for keeping us company during and after the service.

You are the best!

Lots of love,

The Pockross-Rothman family

Dear Jamie,

Just a little note to thank you for all of your help and guidance in preparing for Mom’s funeral.  We were very pleased with Feldman’s professionalism and how you all treated Mom with the respect and dignity she deserved.  We also appreciated the laminated copies of the Denver Post obituaries.

Fondly,

The Zimmerman family

To everyone at Feldman’s-

Thank you all very much for the service you provided at my dad’s funeral and with the arrangements, and also for your donation in his memory.  You were all just wonderful.

Thanks again,

Sincerely,

Marilyn Chappell

Thank you for your contribution to the Jewish Family Service in memory of my mother, Thelma.  Thank you also for making a very difficult time a little easier for my family.

Fondly,

Hylla and Family

Mr. Cohen-

Thank you for your donation to honor Sascha’s name. In her short life, Sascha left a legacy of helping others, doing good and never bragging about her good deeds.  Her angelical voice always defended the ones without a voice.

David and Sonia

Dear Jim, Jamie and Staff-

Thank you for so ably taking care of our family’s needs prior to, during, and after my mother’s passing.  Your calming demeanor and words and actions of comfort greatly helped us.

Sincerely,

Joyce, Alan, and the rest of Elaine Singer’s family

Dear Jamie,

I just wanted to thank you for myself and for my mother, Zelda.  When the time comes, I will feel sad, but so much more relieved that things were done “Z’s” way while she was able to be in charge.

Thank you again,

Joanne

P.S. Without your compassion, I would have been even more of a wreck! Can you imagine?

Mr. Cohen-

On behalf of the Jewish Genealogical Society of Colorado, we would like to thank you for your generous support of the Warren Blatt seminar.

Thank you so much!

The Board

Dear Feldman-

I wish to thank you all for taking such good care of my husband, Hal.  He wanted to be buried as a Jew and would be very proud how everything came together to make that possible.

Sincerely,

Randi Bloomenthal

P.S. A special thanks to Jamie!

Dear Feldman Mortuary-

On August 8th, I stopped in to buy a candle for shiva for my dad.  I left not only with a candle but an entire bag of things I would need.  I just want to thank all of you for your generosity and kindness during an extreme time of need.  It truly means a lot.  Thank you for the respect and concern I received from your funeral home that day.

Sincerely,

Ilene Bloom

Tristan-

Thank you for your gentle way and your compassion.  You made a difficult situation bearable.

With affection,

Paula and Sol Ginz

Dear Jamie-

How very kind of you to send me the laminated notices.  I’ll use one for a book mark and put the other in my memory book.  I’m hoping you and I can get together to talk a little about my resting place. I hope it won’t be too soon but I don’t want my children to have all that worry when the time comes.

Love always,

Randi

Dear Jamie and the whole staff-

Thank you for caring for my father’s needs in a professional, respectful and sensitive manner.

May the new year bring good health, happiness and kindness to all.

Sincerely,

Dan Kravitz

Dear Jim and Feldman Crew-

Thank you so much for your professionalism with my grandmother.  From the time I first met with Jamie until seeing the wonderful coffin — everything was handled first-class.  As a rabbi in the community, and more importantly as a Jew, I was very impressed.  And I just wanted to let you know how much it meant to me.

Thank you for what you do in the community.

With soul and heart,

Rabbi Delcau

Dear Jamie-

Thank you for all your help.  I spoke with mom and she said she had a good night’s sleep after getting her funeral arrangements made.

Thanks again,

Happy Spring!

Dear Jim,
Thank you so very much for the attention and care you gave to our family during this most difficult time.  Every aspect of your services was superb: consultation, transfer to the funeral home, presence at the cemetery, response to questions, and even replenishing acknowledgment cards.  Each person that we dealt with on the phone or in person was caring, considerate and professional.  You handled our questions and sorrow with patience and kindness.  Your knowledge, rapport and efficiency were exemplary.  We can’t thank you enough for making the arrangements for this sad time stress-free.  Please extend our gratitued to your entire staff.
Sincerely,

Dear Jamie-
Thank you for all the hard work planning the two seasons of Before the Mourning.  They were a huge success.  We found them very informative and enjoyable.  We also met some really nice people.  You did a great job.  We feel that you are a great asset to Feldmans.  Thanks again.  Warmest regards, Tippy and Betty

Feldman Mortuary and Mr. Cohen,

My family annot thank you enough for helping us through this very difficult time, the passing of our mother Anita Churches.  Your kind words, gentle ways of speaking with us and for the ease we felt as you managed all of details for us, really meant so very much.  It was a blessing to have you handle her arrangements and for the gentle ways you took care of us.

With much thanks and appreciation,

The family of Anita Churches

Dear Jim,
Our entire family thanks you with all our hearts for your amazing, “lamed-vav-nik,” Elijah-like intervention to help bring our beloved Dotty Karo’s z”l headstone to Rose Hill Cemetery for the unveiling Sunday morning.  What a miracle! You have our gratitude forever.

We do not know who were also involved but please pass forward our thanks to them.
Reb Stephen Booth-Nadav let us know of your works.  Appreciation is only the beginning of our gratitude.
Thank you for everything you have done in support of our family and for so many in our community all of these years.  You are a blessing.

Most gratefully,

The Olesh, Karo, Schwartz families

Jim-
I wanted to thank you too for making a difficult time losing my mom one of understanding.  You helped in so many ways making her day special.
Thanks again,
Barb Murray

Feldmans-
For all who helped me and my father, Meril Stein, I want to thank you.  On a Sunday night, you retrieved him from the “wrong place” an brought him there and arranged everything.

As one who had his own long history of service in the Chevre Kaddisha, he would have appreciated the care he received in Denver.
He now rests in the last of his family’s plots surrounded by others he knew and is content.

Many thanks,
Susan Wick

Dear Friends – especially Larry and Steve:
Just a note from Susie, Anita, Tibor and myself and our entire family for your help with the death of Jolana Lebowitz.  Your knowledge of what to do and the skillful handling of all the problems is much appreciated.
May you all have good health and peace.
Sincerely,
Susie and Paul & Family

Dear Jim,
Thank you so much for making this process so manageable.  We all greatly appreciate the way you helped us through a very difficult time.

You and your staff did a wonderful job. Thanks again.
Sincerely,

Gary Leavitt

Dear Jamie,
Thank you very much for all you and your company have done for the family.  We’ve had deaths before, but nothing like what we are facing now.  So the extra things you have done for us have been very helpful.  Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,
Mary

To Kenning and Staff
Thank you all for the kindness you showed me when you took care of my beloved Joel’s funeral.  It is very much appreciated.  Thank you again for everything.
Marcie

Dear Jim-
I want to thank you for having Stefano as our limo driver for Carolyn’s funeral.  He was interesting, knowledgeable, and caring.  My husband, Jerry, has had 2 strokes but insisted on going to the cemetery.  You know how bad the weather was.  Stefano helped my son walk Jerry to the grave.
Please tell Stefano how much I appreciated his kindness at the special time!
Thank you again,
Leona Harris

Jim,
As life finally begins to settle down a bit and I am forced to try to get my life going again with my great loss, I wanted to take the opportunity to reach out to you and try express my appreciation for everything you did for me and my family.  You are not only a true pro at what you do, but you are a wonderful man who I appreciate and cherish. Your kindness and care for my family and me made me feel like you were a very dear friend.  I have to imagine that is how you make most, if not everyone, feel.  My family also felt great comfort with you and found you to be so wonderful.  You sure have a friend in me.  If there is anything I can do for you, your family, your children, please let me know.  You have my heart and should and I truly want to thank you for everything you have done.
Most sincerely your friend,
Dave and family

Dear Jim,
Thank you so much for handling all the funeral arrangements so nicely and so professionally.  You and your staff helped to make this sad experience as easy as possible for me.
Fondly,
Roni

Dear Marilyn,
Please convey my thanks to Shalom Park for its part in bringing us and hosting Before the Mourning.

I had no idea that it was going to make me think and rethink on the level it did.  While the speakers offered food for the mind, Shalom Park served us food — and what food it was — to satisfy our appetites….

This series has been a most worthwhile experience.  Thank you again.

Sincerely,
Fannie Rose Oxman

Jamie,

Thanks so very much for the opportunity to participate (in the Before the Mourning series); it was just wonderful.  I learned so many things; it was like traveling, the more I learn about traditions and cultures the more I learn about myself.  I did a great deal of introspection after each presentation.

You did a great job in pulling it all together every week, I would very much like to know of any future events you may be coordinating.

Thanks, again!

Margee Cannon

Dear Jim,
I just wanted to say THANK YOU for all the time and energy you have spent educating our staff and volunteers.  Every presentation I heard wonderful feedback from! …Thank you for bringing Feldman’s as a resource to our hospice program.
Blessings,
Andrea
