I knew Seth since he was 10. We've so many memories. His wedding to Heidi, playing jazz on our harpsichord, bringing the family over on the way between Boston and Rochester, watching the girls in the backyard. We stayed with them in their house on Ferndale. Most of all, Seth is one of the sweetest, gentlest, most decent and modest people I've ever met. We will miss him dearly, Steve

Years after, I'm shocked learning that Seth died. Seth is a Penfield High School grad, '73, and one of my treasured former students, also a saxophone player. Years after HS, Seth had a bite with us. Our plates were wooden. One remaining has "S R" inscribed. Seth used the table knife and left his visit. I've another chapter and more. Linda and I, hours after learning, remain dazzled.
