I don't know what past experience you are referring to, but there is nothing in my experience that suggests that a "professional mediator" would have anything at all to say about this matter. I also don't understand what is to be "mediated." You evidently see a conflict that I don't. There's nothing to discuss with Harry, with or without a mediator. It's simple and straightforward, as I have explained in a series of letters. D On Wed, Nov 22, 2017 at 6:33 PM, Diana Chomsky < > wrote: Dear Doddoy, We were so saddened to hear about Ed Herman. What a terrible loss. We understand that you want to live with comfort and financial security. We want that for you as well. If you want to discuss Max stepping down as Trustee, Harry would need to meet with you to discuss that. From our past experience, it's clear that a professional mediator would be needed at this meeting. At this point we don't feel comfortable approving Richard Kahn to replace Max as Trustee.

Harry Chomsky Date: 20/11/2017 21:52 Subject: Marital Trusts Back from Mexico, and there's some business AI like to take care of. I would like to arrange for Max to step down as trustee of the marital trusts. All that this requires is that each of you authorize him to do so. I've explained some of the reasons. There are others. In general, I want to make a clean break from what has been happening for the past few years. I would then like to appoint Richard Kahn as Trustee. As you know, he is the financial advisor/accountant I have been working with, extremely competent and trustworthy. I hope this can be done quickly and expeditiously. In brief, I've worked hard all my life and have managed to set aside funds to ensure your security and the security of your children -- the two houses, trusts, in substantial sums. Valeria and I are very happy together. I think I now have the right to live the rest of my life in peace and tranquility, without constant financial concerns, in fact like everyone else I know Those who remain. You have perhaps heard that my old friend Ed Herman died a few days ago.
