According to The Wrap, the memorial program included a recipe for "Esther Fein's Brisket," a fitting addition, as Ephron was a noted cook.

Ephron died June 26 of pneumonia after a battle with leukemia. She was 71.

She was behind such movies as "When Harry Met Sally" "Sleepless in Seattle" and "You've Got Mail."

Before she died, the director had written a play that may still find its way to Broadway, according to producer Colin Callender.
