Hi Barbara,

Are you related to Barry Sapperstein as well as Gail? My mom was in Gail's class at Fallsburg Central High. My uncle still lives in Woodridge in the house that my mom and he grew up in. My mom left Woodridge when she went to college, got married, had children, became a psychologist, etc. Our whole family lives in the L.A. area. Barry was married to a friend of mine. There were two Charles Slutsky's-one from the Nevele and one from the Fallsview. My cousin is the Charles from the Fallsview (he is actually my mom's first cousin). His mother was Ida (my grandmother's sister) and his father was Ben.

Where do you live?

Small world, huh?
