The Levy and Edelstein families gather for the barmitzvah of Charles Levy February 1963

I recently received this picture from cousin Sharon Leibowitz. It was taken in Upington at the bar mitzvah of Charles, son of Eric Levy and Winnie (nee Edelstein). Members of both families are present, but surprisingly Charles is apparenty not in the picture!

THIS WEEK'S NEWS

We continued to enjoy London, its food and shopping. We had a most interesting visit to Bletchley Park near Milton Keynes where Alan Turing worked during the 2nd World War to decipher the German Enigma codes. We were amazed not only what he and his colleagues achieved but that over 10,000 men and women were involved at Bletchley. It remained a secret until the mid 1970's; today with mobile phones that would be impossible. We had lunch with long-time friend Shirley Poluck, whom we met when we first came to ulpan in 1965.
We returned to Israel on Tuesday. Last night we had dinner at the home of daughter Vered and Aviv, and were happy to again meet newly weds Jonathan and Alexandra, and Nadav Keyson, sons of Jose and David Keyson and grandchildren of our dear friends Hans and the late Lottie Reijzer.
