For the family:
Miriam Vengrow and my Dad, Samuel Zaharoff are twins. Their father, Samuel Zaharoff SR. died 4 months before they were born, on December 17, 1919, from the flu. Their mother, Pauline Tolnick Zaharoff Bornstein could not afford to keep them, so Miriam went to Pauline's sister, The Cohen's to stay with them and my Dad went to the home for Jewish children in Dorchester, Ma. A few years later, Pauline married Louis Bornstein. She tried to get Miriam back, but the Cohen's would not return her. There were no laws to help Pauline get Miriam back. My father had not seen his sister again, until Thanksgiving week, 1964. I was with my Dad at American Kosher in Mattapan, Ma when a lady came up to my Dad. They looked at each other and embraced, hugging. They recognized each other, they looked like each other. Many more memories if interested, contact me.

Dear Dick and family,



I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear of your loss. I am thankful that I was able to know Renie for almost 15 years as her UPS man. We had many deep and thoughtful conversations over the years and I always left her shop smiling. She was a real treasure and a blessing to me. May God be your comfort at this difficult time.



Sincerely,

Dear Dick, James, Kimberly, Jason and Jeff,

I am sorry to hear of your loss. I didn't know Rena personally but had spoken with her on the phone after being diagnosed with breast cancer. Her positive attitude helped me to cope. She was a special person and I only regret not being able to meet her one on one. My sincere condolences.
