September 28, 2022 at 11:02 pmDear Mr. Semhon,
Although it has been more than a year since your loss, I just learned of your father’s passing. I would like to offer my deepest condolences to you and your family.
I was a regional manager with Parlux and, of course, over time, lost touch but I have such great memories of our last meeting.
Your father’s graciousness was a gift to everyone he came in contact with. I have no doubt that he remains very close-by to all of you as the beautiful spirit that he always has been.
