This is the head table at our wedding. Next to Judy is her mother, Marion, who left Russia at age 16 with her twin sister and emigrated to the United States. Behind her is Judy's father, Charles (everybody called him Charlie). Behind Judy is my maternal grandmother, Esther Gordon, standing beside my maternal grandfather, Louis Gordon, the head of the family. Both of them were born in Poland and came to the States as young adults. Next to me is my mother, Beatrice (call me Bea) Gordon Freedberg and behind her is my father, Abraham Stone Freedberg.
My grandparents were the only grandparents still living at that time.
