Blanche Korones Burstein, 102
Apparently, my father's aunt Blanche died. There's a paid obituary in today's New York Times and at this link.
I didn't even know anyone from that generation was still alive. To make it clear who she was, my father's father was Abraham. Abraham had four siblings: Teddy, Hilda, Elliot, and Julius. Julius was married to Blanche.
I thought I remembered being at Julius's funeral as a little boy, but apparently I was wrong. Julius died in 1981 according to this.
I wish Mom were still around. She would have noticed this obit and called to tell me about it. Instead, Josh did.
