The site is not a blog, but rather a vehicle for sharing family information such as family news, births, deaths, activities, pictures, achievements. The site relies on input from family members.From January 2004 until August 2010 this site was updated weekly. From September to December 2010 the site was updated sporadically. Since March 2012 the site is again being updated weekly, except for a 3 week interruption December 2019 - January 2020 due to cessation of internet service beyond our control..

Apologies for the poor
quality of the picture - copied from an old movie
This week we were invited to celebrate
the barmitzvah of Jonathan Kasorla (sse This Week's News below). We
were happy to again see so many family members of the Drui clan (see Schank family tree) including
Doreen's second cousin Zvi (known as Zvike) Karlsblad. Zvike had
recently discovered a home movie of his barmitzvah 54 years ago in
1967. He gave us a copy of part of the movie and the picture above is a
still from this movie. There are some more stills from the barmitzvah here. Seeing the movie brought back
many old memories from those times. We often visited the Karlsblads in
Ramat Gan and I clearly remember losing at chess to Felix who was a
good player.
Over the years we have maintained contact with the Karlsblad family, especially with Rachel; and with the Bortenstein family, especially with Yaffa (Loew) and Yaakov.

THIS WEEK'S NEWS
- As noted above we celebrated the barmitzvah of Jonathan Kasorla
this week in Kidron. Congrations to Jonathan, and to his parents Lital
and Dvir Kasorla and to grandparents Yaakov and Ziva Bortenstein.
- Last week Zvike and Zahava were in Eilat and met up with our son,
Aviv. Picture here.
- The last week has been an eventful one in Israel's political
scene. First we have a new President, Isaac Herzog who to us seems to
be the right choice at the right time. We hope he continues with his
predecessor President Ruby Rivlin's efforts to unite the "4 tribes" in
Israel. Secondly, and even more importantly, a new government was
announced without Netanyahu at its head. The goverment has yet to be
sworn in and anything can happen until this happens, but Doreen and I
are cautiously optimistic and look forward to the new government and
Prime Minister.
