| this was my surprise today: my aunt joanne sent me these old photos of the family via facebook, photos i had never seen and what a joy it was to see my daddy, martin, my darling, handsome daddy i only got for nine months of my life since he died during open heart surgery when he was a mere 22 years old and i a babe in arms. there are so many stories about this family. maybe one day i will write a bit about them. |

| and this photo is of my great grandparents harry and helen berger with their children, among them, my grandfather oscar, when they still lived in sandringham, england. i never got to meet alfred or john, only their daughters, but i totally adored auntie kitty and auntie barbara who i remember taking long walks with and betting on the horse races while visiting them in england (we won). they, too, have many a story. I LOVE, LOVE, FAMILY HISTORY |
