Hello. .. I got to know Dr. Karpman years ago when he came in to do pre-planning at Mount Sinai. Sweet man. I also helped Molinda design his Memorial Tablet after he passed away not all that long ago. It'll be my privilege to assist you with hers in the coming months. Keep all the good times in your hearts and may her memory be a blessing. My condolences. Howard Cohen Mount Sinai [email protected] 818-489-3445
She was a friend
My deepest condolences to the family of Molina. She was a lovely lady and a great wife to Dr Karpman. I knew her through being atheist assistant to Dr Bleifer for many years. May she be blessed at the side of her partner in life. Much love, Sue

Molinda The love you gave to your family and friends, the celebrations you seamlessly put together were fantastic. You were always the life of the party.
