I think Joel is truly blessed with the good friends he made many years ago and those friendships still continue. ... Yes, our families have similarities -- you immigrating from Holland and we from Germany. But, thank the good Lord, we are here to tell the story that you so ably put online with your blog.<br /> Nico Van Thynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07072351355184106484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5125402567351329247.post-30306385177530338622013-11-20T14:39:22.830-06:002013-11-20T14:39:22.830-06:00From Yemile Cohen (groom's mother): Wow, it is...From Yemile Cohen (groom's mother): Wow, it is great how you intertwine stories and share a life. You should write a book. As an afternote, my husband and i were born in Mexico but our families both are from Syria. We did not experience the Holocaust first-hand but did experience some anti-Semitism and could help with some stories if you decide to write your book. Keep the stories coming.<br /><br />Nico Van Thynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07072351355184106484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5125402567351329247.post-75067803913219785452013-11-20T14:35:01.487-06:002013-11-20T14:35:01.487-06:00From Joel Bierig: Your column today leaves me emot...From Joel Bierig: Your column today leaves me emotional in so many ways ... about our friendships, about my Mom, about Becky, about my writing career. ...
