a big day for weddings in the city


Chelsea residents Phyllis Siegel, 77, and Connie Kopelov, 85, got hitched at the marriage bureau on Worth Street in Lower Manhattan at 9:02 a.m., setting off wedding bells across Gotham.  story

one day people will look back and say, can you believe not so long ago  it wasn’t legal to marry who ever you want?  it’s kind of like remembering the times when people owned slaves or when women couldn’t vote.  i’m happy for chelsea & phyllis, and i’m happy for all the people who can now marry whoever they want to marry.    yay for you!   may you always be happy!  yay for ny!

       Strides For Sara

elevation!


Sara is my niece.  She was born with cerebral palsy.  Someday she will walk and I believe that from the bottom of my heart.  But today she can’t –  so we will get her an elevator.  Sara faces a lot of challenges – and always with a smile.  Please help ease her path by making a donation so that she can get an elevator in her home.  No amount it too small.

Strides For Sara was started in 2009 to provide Sara with the tools she needs for mobility and accessibility in her everyday life. An electronic wheel chair was purchased proceeds raised in 2010 for which Sara is so grateful. Now in 2011 we would like to make Sara’s home wheel chair accessible. The funds will be raised by several social events focusing on family and celebrating life including a fun day of golfing on August 8th.   If you don’t golf, just join us for dinner.  If you don’t eat, you can make a donation.  :)
