I just saw this on a page on Facebook talking about Cookies Cookin’! I have such fond memories of Bill and his family. Cookies Cookin was such a big part of my life back in the early 80’s. I still remember being hired by Bill and him teaching me how to make change:-). I am glad to see Bill lived such a long life and hope everyone in the Elkin / Bornstein families are doing well. Nothing but love in my heart for you all
