“I remember Maurice from our years of working in the same firm (I retired in 2018). There was never a more hard working, helpful, kind and friendly person. Maurice was a warm and shining light, a gentleman with class and style and a quick wit who will be greatly missed and remembered fondly. My heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.
