"Monsieur Didier Levy " My Mother's Uncle. What an honor it was to meet him. An extremely intelligent man, who recited to me every American President....to the current President Barack Obama .... I have been told by his daughter in law.. his favorite pharse is " Do you Know?" because it seems this genuis does know just about everything! He was a little disappointed that My Mother did not teach me French, but he quickly forgave me when I said " Je t' Amie" I love you, he gave me a beautiful smile! Merci Beaucoup , I will always remember his smile!!
A Place at the table for Colette's Daughter..... After years of believing I would never find a place where I would fit in, I found the perfect place where I knew I truly belonged , here at this table with My Mother's family... from left to write Serge, Michel, Brigitte, Alain, Gisele and me.

"Gisele" Also My Mother's Cousin. My Mother and Gisele I am told were like sisters and always friends. We enjoyed a wonderful afternoon seeing the sites and having lunch. First Notre Dame and then La Place Royale for lunch. Her laughter and the sparkle in her eyes, for just a little while I had My Mother with me again!! I can not express to Gisele how much our time together filled my heart, I loved her from the moment I met her and I will treasure the memories of this afternoon forever. Thank-you Gisele for all of the gifts , the beautiful handmade scarf you made for me, and mostly Thank-you for the gift of knowing you!
