Myles you were great!   I retained Myles many years ago to help with our direct mail program.  He reorganized everything and created a tremendous testing program.  Myles put us on the right track and we are doing so much better thanks to him.  We had a lot of fun too!  Man he had some great stories.  He lived a well lived life.  He was a warm and caring person and I am better for having known him.  Vivian I am very sorry to see he left us.

Hard to believe that it has been a year since Myles passed.  One of the sharpest tacks in the box.  He left us too early.

I met Myles over 40 years ago when I went to work at American Express. We had some great times and I remember the boat he lived on along with his dog in Port Washington. He taught me a lot and kept me laughing as well. About 10 years later I was working at LMC and Myles became my client when he started up MIT. A short time thereafter, I was able to join MIT and work with Myles for another 10 years. It was the best job I’ve ever had, and he had a lot to do with it. I learned a great deal from him, and always enjoyed his sense of humor. He helped me and my family, along with many others, build a successful career. I will always remember him with great affection and respect. Rest in peace my friend. 

Myles was my favorite of the direct marketing pros I "grew up" with in business.  Brilliant strategist, great advice-giver, one of the smartest people in a profession of very smart people  -- data science -- but without a touch of arrogance.

Best of all, a truly nice and gentle man who was a blast to be with.

Myles was always up for challenging the conventional wisdom in any venue: business, politics or the stock market, but always with the most diplomatic delivery. 

He left us far too soon, and I give my deepest condolences to Vivian and  Nikki.

I always considered Myles as my first mentor, as he literally put me on a different career path (for the better). Myles passed down so much knowledge and experience to me, though I am not even sure if Myles knew I considered him as a teacher and a mentor then. In any case, I still use tricks and shortcuts I learned from him everyday. 

He was such a great influence to everyone around him, and he changed so many lives. I know I am just one of many. 

With Myles, it wasn’t all business either; we also had lots of fun together as a group. Many consider days at his company to be the best part of their respective careers. I’ve witness his company’s ups and downs, but I’d call all of  those as “Good old days”, starting with the daily lunch gathering around a small round table in the pre-MIT days. 

I owe him so much, and it is sad to know there is no way to pay any back. I guess I can try to pass down his knowledge and innovative spirit - which aren’t in any text book - to aspiring marketers and analysts. He once told me that he read everything I wrote, so I hope  he somewhat enjoyed the fact that what he shared is being carried on. 

He indeed left a giant shoe for all of us to fill. He will be greatly missed. 
Rest In Peace, Myles. 




I had the honor of working with Myles for many years. He had a brilliant intellect, and was a true gentleman. He will be sorely missed by the whole team.



First time he met my daughter, Mia. His granddaughter 💔

Myles was a wonderful friend. One fond memory I have is when he met our puppy. She was usually wary of people, but was very happy to cuddle with him inside his sweatshirt. They stayed that way for a very long time. Our hearts ache for Viv and Nikki. 

Myles, my mentor, my friend.  So many years and so many memories from AIM to MIT and beyond.  Dog sitting, baby sitting, boat shopping, to the best boss ever!  I learned so much from you through our years working together and all the fun we had as the greatest group of people.  Our sailing trips with Joel, our Friday night outings, which you always seemed to stop by and join us and pick up the tab.... to our last get together at the Winery at St George.  I realized I missed your birthday and sent you an email and then I heard the sad news.  

Taken from us way too soon.  We thank you for being you and will miss you so.

Vivian.... you were the love of his life....I don't have any words to help with your loss but know he will always be with us in our hearts  .                             Love always Janice

One of the most sweet hearted people... always with a story to tell... one of my most memorable times with Myles was traveling the Gulf Stream with four beautiful dolphins... and the time he stood in for my dad to say the motes and our son's bar mitzvah... Myles knew so much about so many things... I will miss conversations with him... 
Myles, have a good journey...

Myles was a great friend and college for almost 40 years. I will miss his intelligence his humor and wit and most of all  his great heart.  My condolences to his wonderful family.
