Since Mendel was born, Ive been wondering how many of his extended family he'll be close to. And then I started to wonder how many he'd know by name. By sight? Will they just be names he's heard of?

After Shiva, I started working on compiling stories and anecdotes about his Zaide Levin to give Mendel a chance to get to know his grandfather.

I now realize, some months later, that Ive taken on more than I could possibly handle on my own. I would love to personally interview each family member and rediscover memories, but I now know that I cant possibly hope to accomplish that. Not properly.

So I am changing tracks. I am asking you, each of you to help me. Find a cherished memory. A moment, a passing remark. Even a memorable habit. Send them to me. No matter how small or seemingly insignificant. Each one matters.They are tidbits of a life, meant to be passed on.

I would also like to ask permission to use some of the pictures posted here of various family members, and some stories found in the archives of this blog.

What a beautiful thing family is. I'd like to pass it on to my son.

When this project is complete it will be made available to any family member that would like to have a copy.

Wait, I hear the phone ringing. Too much to juggle, one at a time, gotta slow down.

Taking it easy till you guys figure this out. You call my people.
