An Important Mentor

Yana and Family,

I was very sorry to hear of Bernie's untimely passing. Life is too short especially for such a good man.

As I'm sure he was for many students, Bernie was an important mentor for me. There have been a few important people in my life who have helped me be the person I am today, and Bernie is among them.

It might seem small and inconsequential, but Bernie taught me how to read the Wall Street Journal at a time when the financial markets and the business world was a mystery to me. Bernie taught me, along with hundreds of others, Operations Research. Years ago, it was all very simple and done with pencil and paper. Four decades later, we have enormous capabiliites to optimize behavior of all types. It literally helps us create jobs and income for a very large community of workers.

Bernie was a role model for fitness and life long health. As we've all learned, health is not about healthcare, but about we behave. Bernie showed us how to live life.

With much appreciaation to Bernie you will remain in our prayers.

Martin
