Shirley and Barbara Goldman were our "worldly cousin's" from Chicago, they lived a life that seemed like a fairly tale to the 3 younger cousins from South Carolina. They lived such a sophicated and city life, it seemed to us! Now one of those bright lights is
out and it makes so sad,
Our father,Jack Alion, lit up light a light when he spoke of his dear sister, Rose,husband Moe and his dear nieces.
Out thoughts and prayers are with her family.
Cousin Sandra Alion Lasssoff. ( Sarah Baila) we both shared the same Hebrew name
