That means the world to me and I think of you and him and the others,
often....A week ago I went in to Macy's to get a present for our
elery neighbor who has out lived her family. They was a beatiful lady
waiting on me,I asked where she was from, she was quiet and said i am from Iraq,I asked her if she likeed it here,her head lowed,she said you have
done so much for us,and i told her it was ok to miss her home and family
she bent over and we hugged...I remember the stories my mother and
father-law told when they excaped Russia,and my mother-in-law at 15
went to spain with her 2 younger brother they could not say goodbye
to there family members..She left the brothers in Spain with her Pin Pal
came by boat alone and throuh Ellis Island to Detroit. Mi,how brave.
Stay with a cousin worked hard to get her brother and she did. Then
my Father-in-law stopped in Detriot on his way to Philadelphia went he saw
this beautiful tiny women walkng down the street asked if he could take
her to dinner,he never left,they married worked hard owned a small Grocery
store,spoke perfect Enligh and he helped her raised her brother's had 3 children of there own. At the time if you managed to get out of Russia you could
not go back...And the family left back ere punished..My nephew checked
on the family history it was amazing. Hugs to all ,We are Jewish but
celbrate all...We also have many family members living in Israel,I have
been there many times very interesting... Hugs to all
