The site is not a blog, but rather a means for sharing family information such as family news, births, deaths, activities, pictures, achievements. The site relies on input from family members. It is updated weekly usually on Saturday night.
Bobbe Mary with grandchildren Mushe (Bacher) Kirsch and Issy Bacher (?)
Doreen's maternal grandmother was
Mary (Aleshnik) Nickel, known as "Bobbe Mary" who was probably born in
Slonim, Belarus. She died in 1973 and is buried in Johannesburg. Her
husband was Louis (Leibe) Nickel, and they had 5 children and 17
grandchildren.
The number of her descendants is amazing. There are 50 great grandchildren and 79 great great grandchildren (so far!)

- We were saddened to hear about the passing of Archie Ogden, a good friend from our days in St Thomas.
- We have had an amazing crop
of papayas this year and we keep the family and friends well
supplied with this delicious fruit.
- Today we were supposed to fly to Argentina for the Bridge World Series. As I reported last week our flight was cancelled and we couldn't find a reasonable alternate way to get there.
- The Rons, daughter Vered, Aviv, Dani and Lior, also had their flight to Greece cancelled and instead decided to spend their vacation in Cyprus where they are staying in our apartment.
- Daughter-in-law Mikhal and grandson Maayan Segoli are on a
short visit to Uganda and Rwanda to see the mountain gorillas there.
