A beloved gentle giant, a hero for our times. He chose to champion the cause of those who have no voice babies, young children and their families, especially those in poverty. With his passion, curiosity, brilliance, tireless advocacy and generosity, Irving Harris rallied others to help create the ``Zero to Three'' field where previously there was none. A visionary, it took Irving Harris to discern the effectiveness of our model programs and invest in them. He always gave with trusting respect, a model for the field itself. His passing leaves a painful gap, but his light lives on in us, in countless babies, children, parents, workers, clinicians, researchers, and programs across North America, Israel, and beyond. We send deepest sympathies to Irving's loving wife, Joan, and to his entire family of children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, each of whom were so precious to him.
