I was so sorry to hear of the passing of Jocelyn, when I saw U, Joe, and UR Family@Shir Chadash. I tried checking computer for phone #, but couldn't get, and then saw Obituary, and thought I would try this way. Please call Me@455-0936, and give Me UR Parents phone #, so I can call Them. I have many fond memories of Becky and Nissan, and the whole Family from Our West Bank days.
Take care and hope to hear from U soon.
