Orli’s Naming Ceremony

Categories: Archive Family Holiday Letters Family General GSF

This is Ilene’s Speech from Orli’s Naming Ceremony 2/10/18

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.”

― Martin Luther King Jr., A Testament of Hope: The Essential Writings and Speeches

Thank you all for coming to help us welcome Orli in to our lives and community.

Over the last week, we’ve been reflecting on how much this little life really wanted to be here in this world. From conception (which is a story, we’ll spare you) to birth (which was VERY fast…. some of you may have heard, we were only at the hospital 10 minutes before she was born), Orli clearly wanted to be here. In a world that seems even more volatile than usual- politically, financially, and environmentally…why would this little life want to be here so badly? Read More

Holiday Letter 2017

Categories: Archive Family Holiday Letters Family GSF

It’s been a somewhat uneventful year for us.  We “float” between our three homes, visiting friends and family and traveling.  We took two cruises this past year, one to the southern Caribbean and one to the Baltic Sea.  I love showing off my pictures so see one of the links attached for more pictures or go to www.gsfriedman.com if you are reading a paper copy of this greeting.  Photo Link   I must publicly thank Debbi Berke for all her help by visiting in June and coming with us on the cruise.

Hello

Hello

How are you, WHERE ARE YOU

That conversation seems to repeat with almost every call. If you asked me 2-3 years ago if I’d be splitting my time between not two, but three houses and retired at 58 I would have thought you crazy, but that’s been our life the past two years, going between homes in Caton, NY, Emerald Green, Rock Hill, NY and Valencia Shores, Lake Worth, FL

2016 In Review

Categories: Archive Family Holiday Letters Family General GSF Old

In 2016 we learned a new term, snowflakes. Unlike snowbirds who migrate south for the winter; snowflakes never stay long in one place. And so every few weeks we were sleeping on essentially the same mattress, but at different homes.
