Jeanette, Bob, and family, accept my condolences on the loss of your matriarch, Tatiana, who played a special role in my life in teaching me classical ballet. The joy of moving to music, with feeling, and good posture, never left and became an excellent background in my becoming a fitness instructor who tries to encourage others in their wellness pursuits. I have many moments when I think of and try to emulate how graceful and stately she looked. May you find comfort in your memories.

Dear Bob and Jeanette: It is sad to see the loss of your beloved mom. I can recall you and your parents arrival at Camp Yungvelt. They were and remained a most elegant couple and contributed greatly to the life at Camp and shula. My last memory of your mom was at an AR event within the past year. She was still beautiful and elegant in her dress and demeanor. May she rest in peace. And may all of you keep her memory in your heart. Love, Merle Langbord Levine. Ich vinch eich a zeasa Cholom.

My condolences to the Kuchinsky family on the passing of their amazing matriarch. I only learned about this today and she will be greatly missed here in Manulife Centre. She has been my neighbour for about 40 years and although I did not encounter her every day I always remember that she was filled with the joy of life even as she might have slowed with age. She was sharp and aware always. I knew she was so proud of her family and her heritage. Hers, was indeed a life well lived. May her name be a blessing

Dearest Zaza, Misha, Samara and Howard, I am so sorry for your loss. Dear Bob, you have my deepest sympathies. Tatiana was such a life force, such a strong, unique, vital influence in your lives.

Dear Bob, I check Paperman's every day but I never bother to check Toronto until by fluke I was looking at Toronto tonight and saw your mom. Obviously I wrote Zaza and cousins directly but as I don't have your email I wanted to write to you this way and express my sincerest sympathy on her loss. Obviously I've met her a few times over the decades and all I can say is she was an amazing, whip-smart person with whom you did not argue if you were incorrect or unsure of your facts. She inevitably knew them better. An amazing person who had an incredible run. May we all have a life as long and accomplished as hers. My very sincerest condolences and warmest wishes to you Bob.

I found out the news too late but please, accept my deepest condolences on the loss of the beloved Madame KUCHINSKY _as we always referred to her in the former Harbourfront Antique Market. She was a special human being, a true philanthropist. Together with the late Igor, they gave me a hand when I came to Toronto with nothing in 1992. A woman of refined taste, vast knowledge and great spirit. Nice memories to treasure. Rest in peace,
