I remember the good times living on Strauss St. The exact address was 1905. I played that number on the PLAY FOUR and won. The friends and neighbors that sat on the stoop. The movie "The Last Angry Man" was filmed on that street and I think my father was one of the extras.

I also remember the best of time at my sister Ida's house. They were the first to buy a TV. Marge, Me, Judy, Carol, Barbara and Alice and some neighbors lined up chairs and we were in heaven.

I remember my mother with all her wonderful cooking every night but especially Friday night. The dinners would never be forgotten. I remember going to the live fish market with my mother who chose a fish and they just blunted it until we got home and then put into the bathtub. That willl never happen again.

Saddest memories losing all my loved ones. Sid, my husband, brothers Irv and Julie. Sister Ida and my twin sister Marge --- that makes me the saddest. We planned on spending the rest of our lives together.

Passover is just around the corner and the memories of my mother making wine out of grapes. The seders lasted until midnight with all the Passover food and the story of Passover always repeated.

There are so many memories when you reach the age of 75.

I remember a little of every age in my life.
