As paraphrased from a letter (2 October 1993) from Karl Bernstein. My father George was working with a carnival that toured the Maritime Provinces when I was born in 1925. My parents settled inNew York City where my father worked at Madison Square Garden. I attended parochial schools and was raised as a Roman Catholic, the religion of my mother. I joined the Navy on my 17th birthdayin 1942 as an apprentice seaman. I served on an amphibious ship (an LST-tank landing ship) in North Africa, Sicily, the landing at Salerno and throughout the Mediterian as a Gunner's MateFirst Class.

Prior to moving to Tucson, she lived in Long Island, with her husband, Gerald, and their two sons. She worked as a knitting instructress, volunteered for ORT and enjoyed playing Mah Jong. In Tucson, she managed Cele Peterson's, owned the Monterey Beauty Salon, and enjoyed playing Mah Jong, Pan and a variety of other card games.

She will be greatly missed by Ken and Gary and their wives Marilyn and Felice, all of whom loved her and tended to her care. She cherished her grandchildren, Shannon (Gavin) Weidman, Jason (Emily), Kyle (Niki), Eric (Lindsey) and Lauren Freed.

In 1857, Yosef Rivlin founded a society called the Builders of Jerusalem. Six other men joined him and together the seven men built the first neighborhood outside the city walls - Nahalat Shiva( Estate of Seven).
Yemin Moshe: An early Jewish suburb of western Jerusalem, founded next to the original Jewish settlement outside the Old City, Mishkenot Sha'ananim. The brainchild of Yosef Rivlin and DavidYellin and funded by Sir Moses Montefiore, Yemin Moshe was envisioned as an artists colony. In fact, the first buildings were used as the site of a weaving factory, then a hospital.
The problem was that the area was easy prey for local marauders. Rivlin himself courageously moved into one of the houses as his permanent residence. His relatives inside the Old City were soafraid for his safety that they ran
out the main gate when it opened each morning to see if Rivlin was still alive!. Today Yemin Moshe is one of the most picturesque and treasured of Jerusalem's many neighborhoods.

Lilly Goldman tells us the story of how their family came to be in Amenia, NY. It seems that Irving was in highschool when he took a job herding cattle for some people in Leedsville. Irving,still wanting to continue his education, found the only highschool in the area. It was located in Amenia. He then went out and rented a house for $10, later $25. He wrote to his parents aboutthis nice area and tol them to come join him. About the same time business had fallen off for his father Harry. Hearing about this house in Amenia, the family decided to move there. Faga sentout penny postcards to all of her laundry customers, inviting them to come and rent a room, at their new place in Amenia. So the family packed up and moved to Amenia in 1918. The Goldman'swere the third Jewish family in town. Not long afterward, many of the Rothstein's came and also rented out rooms.

My father, Benjamin Gorrelick was born in Volozin, in 1907; his father was Abraham Gorrelick ( a melamed) and his mother was Sarah Cohen. My grandfathear came to this country before the firstworld war broke out and then the rest of the family had to wait until the war was over to come to N.Y. City, in 1921. My grandmother came with her four children, Sol, Nettie, Lillian and myfather, Benjamin who the eldest. My grandfather was a Hebrew teacher, in New York and my father went to the Dewitt Clinton Elementary School, which he did in a year and a half and eventuallywent to City College; then he became a rabbi at the Jewish Theological Seminary. Most of his rabbinic career (49 years) was spent in Detroit, Michigan. He died in 1998. Does anyone recognizethe name "GORRELICK" or Cohen from Volozin? ------------------------- Elisheva Gorrelick Ellis (eliellis@hotmail.com) -------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: a note on theguest book---- Shalom Eilat--------------------Sorry for the scum on the guest book It's a real disaster. As for Avraham Gorrelick, Yes, the late Mr. Reuven Rogovin wrote some "figuresdrawing's about our Melamdim". The fourth drawing (the last one) he dedicated to "The Teacher-Melamed, Rabbi Avraham Gorrelick" (page 484 on the Volozhin Yizkor Book). Reading it one can feelMr. Rogovin's big esteem and love for his Rabbi and Teacher. Here is the word-to-word translation from Hebrew to English I accomplished after receiving your Email: I should post online at theJewishgen site-Volozhin Yizkor Book section, the English version after its final edition. ---- -------- The Melamed and Teacher, Rabbi Avraham Gorellick, By Reuven Rogovin (VYB page484)----From Hebrew by M. Porat --- ...........................Last but not least, was my teacher; Reb Avrom Gorelik. His Heyder was a reformed Heyder. Mr. Gorrelick was an enlightened andeducated teacher, who endlessly loved the Hebrew language. He was the first pioneer in Volozhin and its vicinity to introduce the Hebrew language in the Heyder as a subject of learningobligation. On the Heyder wall was suspended an announcement written in huge letters "SPEAK HEBREW!" Hebrew became for the first time a subject of learning duty the same as Mathematics,Geography, History etc. At those times, it was a novelty, a changeover in the education method. As a teacher he was strict and pedantic, demanding from his pupils' such accomplishments whichwere seen as "unobtainable". He allocated me two days only to learn by heart a Bialik's poem "The Slaughter City". Two days he allocated also to learn Bialik's "Dead of the Desert". For "TheHamatmid" he gave me three days and to learn by heart Yalag's "Between the Lion's teeth" one single day only. The Heyder was situated inside Rohke the Widow's (Rohke Di Almone) apartment onthe Smorgon Street (Smorgoner Gass), near to Hayim Der Shnayder (the Taylor) house. On the second year of its existence, the Heyder removed to Brovarna Street near "Avrom Der Vafernik's"house. Reb Hayim der Shnayder used to enter the Heyder at evening hours and to enjoy himself extremely when he heard the "Moyshelakh" and "Shloymelah" speaking loudly in the Holy Language.Allthe children, Reb Gorrelick's students, apart of "Mihl Lea Dines" and the writer of these lines had been slaughtered in one single day, together with their loving admirer Reb Hayim derShnayder. "Swords were pulled out and bows tensed by wicked godless murderers to defeat poor and pauper and to slaughter the right and honest" (Book of psalms 37, 14)

Rich in history, the Dennis Paper & Food Service Company has been serving Central and Eastern Maine with pride since 1908.

Five Russian immigrant brothers originally founded the company as a bottling service known as Washington County Bottling Works. Deliveries were made by horse-drawn wagon, limiting theterritory covered to the Cherryfield area.

Eventually, Max Dennis bought his brother's share of the business and moved the company into Ellsworth in the early 1920's. Though troubling times were ahead, Max Dennis was able to keep thebusiness running during the depression and World War II, with the help of his wife and son.

When his son, Lawrence Dennis, took over operations in 1945, productions had increased dramatically. The company had developed its own brand of soft drink known as University Club Soda, andwas now bottling and distributing national brands such as Hires Root Beer and Nesbitt's Orange. In 1949, the company incorporated and came to be known as the Dennis Bottling Company.

In the 1950's Dennis Bottling Co. began distributing malt beverages. This development was so well received by the community that a warehouse was opened in Brewer to accommodate distributionand in 1968 the company's headquarters were moved to Veazie. Distribution then became the main focus of the company, resulting in a change of name to Dennis Beverage Company.

Soon after the move to Veazie, Dennis Beverage Company expanded its operations once again, this time to include paper and plastic disposable products and janitorial supplies. In an effort tobest reflect the nature of the business, the name changed to Dennis Paper Company.

The company continued to grow, thanks in large part to the dedication and hard work of Lawrence's wife Lee, his sister Bertha and the children of Lawrence and Lee: Hayden, Ron, Mark andMichele Dennis.

After close to 40 years in the Veazie area, the Dennis Paper & Food Service Company moved to Bangor in 2002 and operations are now based at the new 50,000 square foot distribution center onThatcher Street. This move has once again opened up the windows of opportunity as the company has expanded to a full foodservice broadline distributor, selling fresh, frozen and dry goods.

Through all the changes in the past and the ones yet to be made in the future, one thing remains a constant: The focus, vision and dedication of the Dennis Paper & Food Service Company has andalways will be the complete satisfaction of the valued customers we serve.

This story was told to Corrine Cullen Brooks by her grandmother Faga Rochel Pisetsky Goldman. Harry as a young man served as a calvryman in the Russian Army. He was discharged from the Army. Afew years later he was conscripted again. Based on the history of the time, men were forced to serve for 25 years. Harry not wishing to do this took the name of another person, as many didduring that time. The name that he took was Goldman. Harry then left Russia under a false name.

144 According to 1892-1894 Family List for Uzpaliai, Mikhel was the father of two other children in addition to those linked below. Given names and approximate years of birth follow:

Chaim Romm c. 1871
Izrael Romm c. 1880

May also have had another son, found in Kupiskis vital records, (while registered in Kamajai), as:

Iosel Zalman Romm son of Mikhel, with wife Iahke-Lypse.

There, vital records record the births of two children, Rokhlia-Dveira born Feb 1900 and Shmuel born Jan 1908, as well as death of a son, Mendel, in Jul 1907 at age 5.

Given the similarity of given name Solomon and Zalman, and despite Solomon's young age and subsequent Nov 1909 marriage in Cape Province, South Africa, it is within the realm of possibility that both (Iosel) Zalman and Solomon are one and the same.

Son Joseph Rahm listed below was known as Leizer Iosel in Lithuania.

195 Arthur Berger, Composer and Music Critic, Is Dead at 91
By ALLAN KOZINNOCT. 10, 2003

Arthur Berger, an American composer whose rugged, economically scored music straddles Neo-Classicism and Serialism, and who established a sideline career as a thoughtful writer and critic, died on Tuesday at a hospital in Boston. He was 91 and lived in Cambridge, Mass.

Mr. Berger was part of the wave of Paris-trained composers whose work helped establish a contemporary American style in the 1940's -- one that, in the spirit of American culture, morphed to accommodate new interests and techniques.

Like Aaron Copland and Virgil Thomson, with whom he was associated, Mr. Berger was fascinated in his early years by Stravinsky's music, and he adopted aspects of Stravinsky's rhythmically pointed style, as well as the textural clarity that was central to Stravinsky's Neo-Classicism.

Mr. Berger's work maintained a gritty urbanity that gave the impression of greater abstraction, and held popularity at arm's length, unlike Copland and Thomson. He magnified that distance in the late 1950's by incorporating 12-tone techniques into his music, which retained its Neo-Classical contours.

Popularity was never an issue for Mr. Berger. ''If Serialism's detractors mean that it has not become big-time box office,'' he wrote in a 1987 article in The Boston Review, ''they should be reminded that there are other audiences, not at all negligible, besides the big ones.''

Arthur Berger was born in New York on May 15, 1912. He began playing the piano when he was 11, and wrote his first compositions while in high school. Although he enrolled at City College in 1928, he did not begin his formal studies in composition until he transferred to New York University, where he completed a bachelor's degree in 1934.

He also became friendly with Copland, and joined Copland's informal Young Composer's Group.

With the composer Bernard Herrmann -- who had not yet made his name as a film-score composer -- Mr. Berger published the Musical Mercury, a magazine devoted to contemporary and traditional music. He edited the magazine for three years, while also studying composition with Walter Piston, Hugo Leichtentritt and Archibald Thompson Davison at Harvard, where he earned his master's degree in 1936.

In 1937 he moved to Paris for two years of study with Nadia Boulanger, the French theory and composition teacher who had been a crucial influence on Copland. Upon his return from Paris in 1939, Mr. Berger joined the faculty of Mills College in Oakland, Calif., where he also continued his composition studies with Darius Milhaud. He later taught at Brooklyn College, the Juilliard School, Brandeis University and the New England Conservatory, retiring from teaching in 1999.

Mr. Berger also contributed reviews to The Boston Transcript and The New York Sun in the mid-1940's, and joined Thomson as a critic at The New York Herald Tribune. In 1962 he helped found Perspectives on New Music, a scholarly publication, which he edited briefly.

His autobiography, ''Reflections of an American Composer,'' was published by the University of California Press in 2002.

Mr. Berger's musical output includes works for orchestra, solo voice and choir, but his most durable and varied compositions are for chamber ensembles and piano. His first major work, the Quartet for Winds (1941) -- a lively Neo-Classical piece dedicated to Copland -- is still performed regularly. A series of duos -- for violin and piano (1948), cello and piano (1951) and oboe and clarinet (1952) -- continue to sound vital and fresh, and there is much power and beauty in his piano music.

He is survived by his wife, Ellen.

203 As told by Ellen Heymann.
As a child of 5 or 6 Harry had a bad sledding accident, where he received a serious brain injury. As a result he suffered seizures. Medical people of those days though he was retarded. But infact just the oppisite was true. He was overly intelligent.
The family had him placed in an institutioal facility. He escaped. He was then put into facility in Bangor. He escaped again with another inmate. They both tried to swim across the Penobscotriver, but both individuals drowned in the process.
Ellen remembers meeting him once. He was wearing strange looking glasses and just stared at her.
She also attended the funeral, where he was burried in the old cemetery section in Bangor.
