  3. My wife Vijaya and I got to know Ed and Nancy Lipovetz when we used to visit our daughter and son-in-law who were living across from them in Hamden, CT during the 2001 – 2005 period. Ed and Nancy were the nicest people. Ed was very helpful to my daughter and son-in-law while they lived there. We were sorry to hear about Ed’s passing so soon after Nancy passed away. We offer our most sincere and heartfelt condolences to the Lipovetz family.
