It is with deep sorrow that we inform you of

Lisa Aronin (Douglas). He was the cherished
grandfather of Michael Lawrence, Elana Stein
(Josh), Josh Lawrence (Gabi), Shira Nanavati

Aronin (Tovah), Chava Aronin, Brittany

Adir and Ariyah Lawrence; Annaelle and Zeke
Nanavati; Yaakov and Eli Aronin; Luca and
Liam Imbergamo; and Cole Duncan. He is
also survived by his sisters, Penny Shuman
and Susan Winston. Minya and Herb were
married at Har Zion in 1951 and would have
celebrated their 70th anniversary this past
March. Herb was an active member of Har
Zion for over 60 years. The family respect-
fully requests that contributions be made to
Har Zion Temple or AMIT Children. Herb re-
ceived his bachelor's and master's degrees in
education from Temple University where he
also completed the academic requirements
for his PhD in psychoeducational processes.

He spent several years teaching in the Phil-
adelphia Public School System, using humor
and poker odds to teach his high school stu-
dents mathematics. Ultimately, Herb joined
the family business in the glass industry, be-
coming an expert in safety, security, and en-
ergy-efficient glass and window films. He
was a consultant for the White House, the
National Park Service, and the Department of
Energy, and supported numerous high-pro-
file projects including the Ellis Island Restor-
ation Project. He was also an expert witness,
published author and speaker who testified
before legislative committees and was a
member of the Board of the Building Enclos-
ure Technology and Environment Council, a
council of the National Institute of Building
Sciences. Herb held two patents for method-
ology for manufacturing certified glazing
products using applied films, and received
the State of New Jersey's Innovation Award.

In addition, the National Institute of Building
Sciences bestowed its highest honor on him-
the NIBS Member Award. That award reads,
in part, "Herb Yudenfriend. . . has been a
guiding force in our effort to reduce energy
use in homes and buildings. His leadership in
developing the concept for an energy rating
system for windows, helping to develop the
ASTM standard for window installation, and
promoting training and certification pro-
grams for window installers, . . . [has] ad-
vanced national energy efficiency goals." A

to play the piano and compose music. He
performed his piano concerto, The Impres-
sions of a Dream, on the radio in 1947 and
his song It Was Just a Day in Mid-Septem-
