Rosh Hashanah 5749/September 1988                                                              Volume 1 # 2

Your response to the first edition of Relatively Speaking was most gratifying.  Many of you sent me such lovely comments and reactions that I was encouraged to continue the efforts.  Many thanks to ALL of you who sent the small, nominal subscription fee.  An extra special thank you to those who sent more. I do appreciate it. Paper and postage fees, you know, do mount up.
    There were, of course, several mistakes on the family trees, which will be corrected.  There were also many additions to them. Please use the new address-phone lists which have been updated as well.
    From your comments I realized that many of you don't know "why the heck" all these strangers names are mentioned in the newsletter.  You know you're not related to them.  I am including a genealogical pedigree for myself, which I hope will show you why all of you are receiving this newsletter.  You will see a common ancestor by looking on the family trees I prepared for each family.
    There were a few "happenings" in the family, which I shall report in these pages.  However, my trip to the East Coast this summer uncovered the most exciting discoveries.  They, too shall be reported here.
    Sam and I want to publicly thank everyone who hosted us for breakfast, lunch or dinner this summer.. We had a lovely time meeting everyone and were pleased that we managed to fit so much into so few hours. Next year's seminar will be in Philadelphia at the end of June. We hope to meet more of you at that time.
    It's the time of year when we send out our Rosh Hashanah greetings, which you should find enclosed.  To each of you we wish a sweet, peaceful and fulfilling new year.
    And last, but not least, Sam and I are pleased to announce that our daughter Alissa became engaged to be married to Dr. Kenny Bendik, D. D. S. on July 27. They are planning a December wedding, so after this newsletter goes to print, I'll be rather busy needle working a Chuppah (wedding canopy). It would be our dearest pleasure to invite everyone of you to share our joy and dance for the Hassan and Kallah (bride and groom). However, the groom has some family and friends to invite as well, and the room they've chosen for the wedding only holds 200. (Don't worry, I'll start on their family tree after the wedding.)
