Hi ReneeThankyou for writing such a nice article about Baba Bertha. She always considered Lethbridge her home and at times told me that her family was there--in the cemetery! Lethbridge was good to Baba and Zaida (he was well known and like an unofficial mayor) and they were good for Lethbridge. Lethbridge, although always lacking a little in Jewish quantity, made up for it in "quality". It was home for your dad and me and to this day, I do miss some of the warmth it offered and small city caring. People there had (and probably still do) time for others! Yes, Baba's heart never left there.
