Gordon and Seder

Today was one special day for me. I was able to remember and track down my Blood First Cousin (from my dad's side) and speak to Shelley for the first time in over 35 years...for a good hour. We then spoke that next night for about another hour. What a tremendous feeling to talk with some one who is not only your blood relative but who you have known, and who knows you since little children. Shelley has such a great memory of Grandma, Grandpop, and Michele and even Valerie, and especially my father. She brought me up to date with her family as well. I just can't tell you all how much this meant to me. Shelley was wonderful to me!!!

My sister Susan Cohen was living in California for the past 21 years. Her health has been seriously failing her for 15 years. Susie-Q (as I called her) passed away October 15, 2006. She was living in Marina Del Rey California. Luckily I got to be with her for 8 days before she passed. Sue had bad MS. But ultimatly breast cancer too her away.

Mom and dad and much of the family have all passed many years ago too.

I purchased Seder (my wonderful dog) in 1993 during the Jewish Holiday, Passover. Hence her name, Seder (pronounced Seyder). She was a part of my family, (she was MY family). I loved her very much. Seder passed away August 26th, 2006 after giving me 13 years of wonderful companionship and all the love in the world.

Of course there is my very dear friend whom I will NEVER ever forget,, who passed away, Lynn Briggs Lynn A Briggs, Lynn Angel Briggs.

Over on this link there are some pictures of my close, close, close, CLOSE friend Lynn Briggs.
