I spent the first 11 years of my life (I turn 68 next month) in the Albany Park neighborhood. Toby Lederman was a teenager at the time and a bit older than me but Arnie was my playmate along with dozens of other kids on Albany Avenue. I lived at 4959 on the corner across from the park and Arnie and Toby and their parents lived a few doors south. During my life, I have aften thought of those days and the kids and their parents who worked so hard to bring their kids up right. Although I don't have a specific recollection of Jennie, I know that she, like all the mothers of the Albany Ave. kids, loved and nurtured their children, taught them the benefits of education. Arnie was a quiet kid and I hope he has had a good life. If he would ever want to reminisce with me about the other kids on the block, I would enjoy it. My condolences on the loss of your mother.
