Some family research
I've got most of the day off as does the rest of the city.It's the Easter holiday and families traditionally go to the cemetary. I'll go see my orphans pretty soon as they have just another day. Time for some Mother May I if I can explain it without knowing any Ukrainian. Good luck Joyce.
I've been doing some research on maybe tracing my roots here and found a site with some cool photos. http://www.jewishgen.org/Ukraine/Kharkov/KharkovCollection.htm I like thinking about my family here though having to escape to survive must have been very hard. Keep thinking about my dad's first 12 years in Kharkov. We'll see how the contacts go for seeing if anyone is still alive. Got a bus to catch!

Greetings Joyce,
And bless you for all that you are doing for the children and your delving into the past which addresses the child within you.
This most likely seems mundane however, the auction takes place on May 8 and you had offered a board of sorts that speaks to your donation.
Do you have a scheduled time for arrival back into the States? Whether it takes place before or after the auction, I look forward to seeing you and learning more about your incredible experiences. The children will never forget the kindness an American woman offered, who most assuredly appears as an angel.
Be well, travel safe and again thank you for all that you do! ~T.
