I don't even know how to write this. We are all so very sad. Melonie Schollmeyer, a vibrant woman, our relative and friend, became suddenly ill over the weekend and passed away. Details at this point are sketchy. **(The following is updated info as of noon Monday)** Melonie's children, Brittany and Robert, just had their Confirmation on Saturday evening. Melonie was not feeling well enough to attend, and stayed at home with flu-like symptoms.

Family Pics from Israel

Image
Here's a pic of Debora, Vernon, and Sherry at the Kotel (Western Wall) in Jerusalem, taken on the day of Yoav's Bar Mitzvah (which was rather obviously done at the Kotel). Debora has grown so much! Nonetheless she is standing on a chair to be this close in stature to her dad! And then we have Sherry, Debora, and Susan: pic taken at the same location... Pictured below are Efrat and Yoav. Efrat is Ariel's wife, and Yoav is Efrat's nephew (son of Rosie and Effie). After the Bar Mitzvah ceremony at the Kotel we went to Mini Israel, where this photo was taken. More pictures coming soon, so stay tuned!
