I just watched a movie playing in Williamsburg Brooklyn and had to think of Ira. Googled him and was aghast to see he passed. In the 1980s I worked nearly on a daily basis with Ira as a print buyer for McGraw-Hill. He was such a great guy and so much fun! Highly professional and just a wonderful human being. My deepest condolences to his family. One special memory was when we went to the rooftop of of the McGraw-Hill building and just enjoyed the incredible view up there. And once we did the same with one of the buildings in Rockefeller center. RIP dear Ira...

Today,  not sure why today…but, I thought about my time working with A.J. Bart.  I, thought, specifically of Ira Bart. I did not expect the results.  I send my condolences, though very late, to the Bart family.  I am sorry for your loss…

Blessings,

I just learned about the passing of Ira. to Betsy, Sam, Nora, Rich, AJ & his Mother. I am so so sorry to hear about this. I have not been in touch with Ira for many years, but for the years I  knew Ira, I had not known of a warmer, generous, loving guy. We were close friends who grew apart. I am deeply saddened by this news. Memories of Ira are flooding my head and they make me smile. Stephen Badalamenti

I'm very sorry for your lost Betsy, Sam and Nora. i have just recent found out about Ira.the lost of your father/ husband most be very hard, Ira was a good man, loving father and husband.  my prayers and love is with you guys.

Betsy, Sam and Nora,
It was just days ago I found out that Ira passed.  I am still in shock and have been walking around with a heavy heart.  I have not stop weeping for this wonderful, wonderful man I called friend and you called husband and father. I first met Ira 26 years ago when I was working at McGraw Hill. With time and life happening the past few years, we just re-connected last August.  We had such a wonderful conversation as if we never skipped a beat.  I'm glad I was able to reflect and thank Ira for all of the wonderful things he has done for me over the years. He was one of the most generous people I ever met and had such a generous spirit.  He had a unique way of letting you feel like the most special person in the world.  His beautiful blue eyes especially lit up when he spoke about his children.  He was so proud of both of his children.
Ira always loved with all his heart.  He recently reached out after the hurricane to see how I was doing. He truly was the most kind person I ever met. 
Richie, Mr. & Mrs. Bart and Holly, I am so very sorry for your loss.  I am so grateful to know Ira and be a part of his life.  I will miss him.

Sam, Betsey, and Nora- Grace just called me and told me about Ira. I am so sorry about the sadness this has caused you. I remember all of our memories near 91st/3rd Ave. Nancy Martin and Robert Krattli

Betsy, I just heard from Suzanne and I am so so sorry.  Ira was one of a kind and, even though we haven't been in touch for a while, I think of him so often.  I am heartbroken.  Sending love and prayers.

Ira was a great friend.  We will never forget his wonderful smile or sense of humor and the wonderful times we spent together. So sad to hear the news.  Sincere sympathy to Betsy & family.

Suzanne & Tom Zarrilli

Betsy, Iam still in shock. On my arrival to this country from Trindiad in the early eighties, Ira was one of my first friends.  Words simply cannot express what this continued friendship has meant to me.  To say I will miss his continuous smile is an understatement.  May God be with you and your family in this difficult time.
Love, Anne Marie Millien

As a print buyer for McGraw-Hill in the early 80's I had the privilege of doing business with Ira and AJ Bart. Ira was one of the kindest human beings I have ever met..and he was a good friend.  My heart dropped when I heard of his passing.  It is rare that you meet a person as genuine and as extraordinary as Ira...He was one of a kind.  May God hold him in the hallow of his hand..My prayers go out to his family.  Melissa Larkin (Himes)

Dear Betsy, Nora and Sam, I can't even begin to tell how sorry and heart wrenching it was for me to hear about Ira.  Although we've never met and I haven't seen Ira for many years our families spent a great deal of time together while we were kids growing up and was a 2nd family to me.  Please accept my sympathy.  Cling to your memories and let them find their way to heal you

I only knew Ira for 8 short years, during which time he was a business colleague, but more importantly, a true friend & inspiration. It was amazing to hear his stories about Sam & Nora, & it was clear to me how much he loved them.  He lived his life with a passion & generosity that is extremely rare. His memory will live in our hearts forever.  My sincere sympathy to the family.

Dear Betsy, Sam, and Nora,
 My heart goes out to you on the loss of your beloved husband and father.  His spirit will live on through all of you.  
Sending you sympathy and love,
Jody Doman

It's been quite a few years since I've seen Ira.  He and I have shared many stories over many drinks in the old Tupelo Grill.  He was just a real good guy.  Sorry to see you go Man !
Sleep well.

I've been thinking of my childhood so many but very vivid years ago, which Ira was such a large part. His family and ours spent so many enjoyable and memorable years around the pool at his house. A year and a half ago, I ran into Ira in Westhampton when he "recognized" my voice. The smiling eyes and bear hug brought me back to our youth and Ira's quick wit, friendship and big brother protection of my sister and I. I am deeply sorry you are gone so young however i am certain your life was rich in the love of your family and friends. May your memory be a blessing to all the lives you touched along your way.

Ira was a great guy, but then everyone already knows that.  Although I haven't seen Ira for a few years, I'll never forget his quick wit, generous nature and enjoyment of a good time.  He will be missed.  AJ & Richie and the rest of the Bart family, please accept our deepest sympathies.  Janet & Marty

Thanks for all of the love. Keep it coming. We miss him dearly, but we will carry him with us forever.

On behalf of Betsy and Nora with love.

Ira, you were a friend and my "almost" family.  It warms my heart remembering how you would continue to introduce me to people as your sister-in-law... even after all these years.  I will never forget our private talks and most especially the laughs we shared.  You will be missed by so many.  My heart hurts for the Bart family as well as the extended AJ Bart & Sons family. You were a gem (understatement) and I will never forget your generosity, your humor and your spirit.  I hope the sun is shining where you are and the Belvedere in chilled perfectly for you.  With much love, your "sister-in-law" Joanne

As a child, I loved visiting with Ira and Betsy in the big city.  He was always extremely generous and lots of fun to be with.  Ira, you will always be a fond memory of my childhood.  Love, Anya Cytryn O'Connor

I could not believe my eyes this morning when I saw this obit in the NY Times. My family has known the Bart family for nearly 40 years, when my dad worked for Al and later, his boys, first in Manhattan and later in Brooklyn.   

To Al and Shirley, Betsy, Sam & Nora, Holly and Richie, and Steve B -- my deepest sympathy.  Ira was a good man, not something you can say easily these days, and will be well remembered by his loving family and friends.

We love you Ira its so sad not to have seen you in so many years we're saddened by the news may you rest in peace. Miss you man. Herb and Enid

Ira lived across the street from us in Westhampton. Ira was a wonderful person, friendly and kind. We were lucky to have known him.
