   Thanks so much for putting this material together. I share your sense of loss on many levels - personally and of oourse also for the loss of the teachings and writings that he had yet to offer the world. He was an amazing person and it means so much for there to be an “address” where some of this can be gathered and preserved. If I can help in any way, please let me know.
   Thanks again -
   Best,
   Nomi Mark

   Just heard about Johnny. Have not seen him since 1988. He was a true friend of mine. I always loved him and was deeply saddened by his loss. I should have stayed in touch. I guess I just got caught up in life. Johnny was an outstanding person in every way. He had an unusual ability to understand the Gemorrah with the Rishonim and Achronim on the deepest level. He could have easily been a player with those sitting in the great European yeshivos pre WW2. He still had so much to offer and was taken away from us way to young. Hope you forgive me for not calling you the last bunch of years.
