Scott and I spent SHavuos in Allentown, PA which is about 1 hour away from Philly. We stayed at his cousins. The community was nice, nothing too interesting to share about it... But it was exciting meeting the Notis family, whom are Fisch relatives. Scott has known this family for years and years, so it was really cool to meet them as relatives. They are a main family in Allentown. The entire community refers to the grandparents as Grandma Cookie and Papa Mike which are Abba, Uncle NAts, Dodas, and Uncle Yossi's 2nd cousins. Then my 3rd cousins, are the kids who have kids my age.
Grandma Cookie asked about Uncle Yossi who visited there several years ago. She is probably in her 70's and is very with-it. I enjoyed talking to her about her billions of cookbooks lining her living room. They also had a blown up, framed picture of the Fisch Family Picture that's on the reunion book.
They are not going to the reunion this summer, they said none of their close Zweibel relatives are going, but they did go to the 100th reunion.
Hope everyone else is doing great!
