Irv Salem and Patricia Marand

Irv Salem's Tribute To His Wife

Irv Salem was a well-respected lawyer, the husband of Broadway's Lois Lane aka Patricia Marand, and an accomplished artist. He was absolutely smitten with his beautiful wife and paid tribute to her in several venues. Sadly, Irv passed away in 2016 (just a few months before Bob Holiday), and with his death, the website he'd built disappeared. Fortunately, the Wayback Machine, an incredible sampling of the Internet, maintained some copies of Irv's website. SupermanBobHoliday.com is proud to bring you what copies we could find on the Wayback Machine of Irv Salem's loving tribute to his beautiful wife, Patricia Marand.
