              <text>Ethel´s sister, Fanny, got married and had a daughter, Eleanor, whom everybody called Elkie.  Elkie married Jack Zaris and they lived in Camden, New Jersey.  Elkie was full of energy, Jack was far more reserved, who lived somewhere between curmudgeon and sweet guy.  He loved to play poker and go to the races, including the dog races.  Jack and Elkie had two children, Gil and Dale, and in 1964, at the age of 24, Gil came out to California to visit the family.&#13;
&#13;
I don´t recall if he stayed with Hi´s family, but we definitely spent a lot of time with, and this was the end of that trip, as we took him to LAX.&#13;
&#13;
At that time, flying was a big deal, and picking up or dropping off someone from the airport was a ritual.  Not quite, the ritual of putting a "lei of flowers" around his neck, but in that same vein.  &#13;
&#13;
The guy in this picture, is a friend of Gil´s, perhaps an army buddy, who lived in Los Angeles.&#13;
&#13;
Gil went on to become a mucky muck in a major grocery store chain and then become Vice Chairman of Harris Freeman, which probably produced that cup of tea that you drank today.</text>
