Dear Cousin Beryl,
Many thanks for the information about Leo Gutman, a cousin on my mother's side whom I well remember from summer childhood visits to Cincinnati. Leo was always enthusiastic about our large extended family and maintained contact with many of its far flung members. I was impressed and amused by his stories about how he acquired the rights to the Sherlock Holmes movies from the 1930s and 40s very inexpensively and then found a substantial market for them on late night television years later. (My wife Judith is addict of that sort of fare.) Clarence, my dear Uncle Clarence was an inimitable individual, generous and kind, reserved and self-deprecating, cautious and curmudgeonly, yet absurdly indulgent of his two Strasfogel nephews. It's a shame you never met him. He was a wonderful original. Andrew and I loved him very much.
Many thanks for your devotion to the many branches of our family tree.
Cordially,
Ian Strasfogel

The war was cruel and people were forced to leave their native places. There was no doubt that they lost touch with each other. Many soldiers were killed but he tried his best to keep alive because he owed her a wedding and he promised to come back.[url=http://www.good4shopper.com/submariner_rolex-watches.html]replica Rolex Submariner[/url] [url=http://www.watcheshall.com/cartier-watches.html]watches Cartier[/url] [url=http://www.sunglassescool.com/gucci-sunglasses.html]gucci sunglasses[/url] Rolex watches are amazing. A gorgeous Rolex watch looks great and stylish. As we all know that Rolex watches are known for its strength and endurance, that's why Rolex watches have a good reputation for so many years. And also you will see the quality and precision reflected in each Rolex watch. So, Rolex is a name that thousands of people had dreamed of.
