Condolences to Rosalie Ajzensztejn

Rosalie Ajzensztejn (Auntie Mildred's niece), wanted the family to know the sad news that her husband Serge died at Pesach. She sent the following message:

So sad to tell you that Serge died last night on Sunday 24 April 2016. We will miss him hugely but at long last the suffering is over.

For those of you who would like to attend the funeral it will be this Thursday 28 April at 9.50am.  Because it is the seventh day of Pesach rather than prayers we may hold the Mincha Service here at our house around 3 or 4pm and there will be prayers as normal on Sunday evening 1 May.

The funeral will be held at The Western Cemetery.
Bulls Cross Ride,
Cheshunt EN7 5HT

Going on the M25 you take exit 25 then take the A10 in the direction of central London. Turn right at the first set of traffic lights then right at the mini roundabout.
It is opposite Tottenham Hotspur Training grounds on the left.  Take the road on right and follow the signs to the cemetery.

For further information/maps etc., see:

If you can think of someone who may have known Serge and would like to pay their respects please feel free to tell them as my list is probably incomplete. They are welcome either to come to the funeral or pop in to say hello from tomorrow onwards.

Love to you all and again thank you for all the support you have given to us.

Message from Rachel Barnard

Davnob received the following email from Rachel

Hi Everyone,

First, thank you so much for your emails and I do apologise for not answering individually. It is a great comfort to know that so many people had such kind words to say about Laurie.

We are having a commemoration of Laurie's life on Sunday 24th April, here in our house in Boa Vista, starting at 2.00 PM. I hope you will be able to come and have a few drinks to remember him. Please do let me know whether you can come as I need numbers for catering.

Anyone that wants to commemorate Laurie's life is welcome. We are quite a bit out of the way and people have prior engagements, so I do understand how difficult is for people to come.Nevertheless it is unfortunate that nobody from his family, other than his sons, can come. I am sure that people will celebrate his life in their own way.

IN LAURIE'S MEMORY

When Pepe, our Portuguese Waterdog died, we needed a companion for Bica, another Portuguese Waterdog. 

We went to Goldra, a kennel for abandoned dogs looking for a dog about Bica's age 10, and size. But just as we went in Laurie spotted a dog who came to him and put his great head on his lap. And that was that, except that Ruppee is, we believe, a 3 years old Irish Woolfhound, twice Bica's size. Ruppee became his dog and gave him much pleasure. The kennel is run by dedicated volunteers and needs financial help. If you would like to make a small gesture to honor Laurie's memory, you could  send a donation to the kennel to the following bank particulars:
