I have so many wonderful memories from my times spent with Mr Reilly at Brooks Brothers. Sitting in his office placing a buy for Italian merino wool sweaters, as an assistant buyer. Only to have Mr Jaffe come back from a trip to tell us that we bought too many! And trekking through the cobblestone streets of Florence in high heels, with Mrs Reilly leading the way, to find a restaurant she had read about in Gourmet magazine. As Mr Reilly admonished her that we were lost. We finally found the little restaurant and had a wonderful family style meal. We were so fortunate to have Mr Reilly’s guidance and good humor at the helm. My sincerest condolences to the family.
