    I had the privilege of working alongside Daniel Saffran for over two decades. He was a man of few words, but he was steady when others faltered. To work for him was to learn what it meant to be trusted. To know him was to understand that true strength does not raise its voice, he was always unfalteringly kind. I will miss his presence. My husband Ben and I send our deepest condolences to Lena Rausing, Arno Saffran, and the entire family.
