[edit] NotesFrom "The Palm Beach Daily News: Rose Sachs and her late husband, Mortimer Sachs, arrived in the early 1940s in Palm Beach, where for several years they owned Palm Beach Mercantile department store. But they became intimately involved in the life of the town after purchasing Addison Mizner’s Via Mizner and his tower apartment, the Villa Mizner. (A tombstone in Via Mizner famously marks the final resting place of the couple’s dog, Laddie.) Over the years, the couple bought and developed many properties on Worth Avenue. She has supported many charitable causes, most particularly Palm Beach Atlantic University, of which she and her husband were major benefactors.
