I took two French classes from Moishe in the '60s and to this day remember him as among the best professors I had in my seven years of university. He was indeed, as the obituary says, "kind, warm, gentle, and funny." Yes, but he conducted his classes with a kind of no-nonsense approach that inspired respect and high admiration. I do wish I could been able to exchange a few words with him in these later years and been able, thereby, to tell him of my abiding fondness for him.
My wife Sigrid wants to take this occasion to say hello to Moishe's daughter Gillian, whom she taught as a very special grade two student at Brunskill School, in 1968-69. Sigrid says that Gillian was so advanced a reader that it was difficult to find books that were suitable for her.
