Until I met Heber, I didn't know that genealogical records of Eastern European Jewish families existed. He had never researched a Jewish family before, but rose to the challenge enthusiastically. On our second date, he gave me copies of the manifests for the ships that carried my father and his family from Bordeaux to New York, via Buenos Aires. Soon thereafter, he discovered The Felshtin Society, a mutual aid society founded in 1905 by immigrants from my father's home town. He flew me to a meeting of The Felshtin Society in New Jersey, where he was accorded the title of "Honorary Felshtiner" in recognition of his work supporting the English translation of the 672-page memorial book first published in 1937. Together, Heber and I created a presentation about the history of my family and their town. Students and teachers in history classes in my grandchildrens's schools found the presentation fascinating. Heber introduced me to the grandfather I never met -- a priceless gift for which I can say only, "Thank you, Heber." Pilot, advisor, scholar, friend...how I miss you.
