L to R: me, my cousin Rebecca, grandmom Gloria, Aunt Beth, and my cousin Katie.

This was a really great day. We were all at my Aunt Beth's graduation from medical school. I was and still am extremely proud of her for making the kinds of life changes involved in such an endeavor. My grandmom is the matriarch of my father's half of the family. I lived with her and my Pop Irv in the summers when I was little. I've always been very close with my two cousins. Until my brother Ben was born when I was 11, they were as close as I had to siblings. Rebecca is going to be a senior at Cornell this year and Katie is a freshman at a college in South Carolina (sorry I forgot the name, Katie).




This is my aunt Stacy though I think of her as more of a cousin. She is daughter of my grandmother elaine who is my natural grandfather's second wife. I don't see Stacy very often since I live in Mass. and she lives in Florida, but we always have a great time when we do.

STILL TO COME...uncle skip, the mad drummer!
