I was very ...I grew up in BPG from 1949 until 1968. I was very friendly with Jerry Bovino, got ice cream from his father, Joe (who was a wonderful man) and had Mrs. Epstein for my sixth grade teacher, Class 6-2, in 1959. I was Bat Mitzvahed at OJC with Michael Stempler, whose parents owned the bakery at Springfield Blvd., Sherrie’s. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years as an attorney and had the pleasure of meeting Richard Dreyfus’s on several occasions. I am a few years older than him but we did reminisce about P.S. 46 (we had some teachers in common). He was absolutely delightful to speak with but would not introduce me to Steven Spielberg. I remember Janis Bovino (much younger) but I was in junior high (74) with Peter Anson. I think most people who participate in this group chat and those for BPG are younger than me (which, at this stage of life seems to be A LOT OF YOU) but it’s fun reading about where I grew up. One final note, does anyone know the whereabouts of Gail Stevens. She and I went to school together through Francis Lewis H.S., lived near one another forever and was absolutely gorgeous (so much so that I was always scared to death to speak to her).Jeffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-91605684859114633032024-01-23T13:24:25.071+02:002024-01-23T13:24:25.071+02:00Netivotgirl, hugs, may Gd give strength and wisdom...Netivotgirl, hugs, may Gd give strength and wisdom to our government leaders.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-20266629822261428842024-01-23T12:55:11.905+02:002024-01-23T12:55:11.905+02:00Today is an extremely difficult day for us all los...Today is an extremely difficult day for us all losing so many dear IDF men. I have sirens here in Netivot, but no mamad; I would break a leg attempting to reach the bomb shelter on the ground floor of my ancient building. I consider the Baba Sali's shrine my Mamad. (It can be seen from my kitchen window, B'H.) I pray each morning for at least 50 soldiers: husbands; sons; daughters; grandchildren of friends plus my family members fighting in this war. And I absolutely hate when they announce the names of those who have fallen defending our beloved Israel. *Sigh*Netivotgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00746343586043134996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-39386055891058972542024-01-23T04:29:27.843+02:002024-01-23T04:29:27.843+02:00Thanks for commenting.

I lived in Bell Park Gardens from late 1949 to summer of 1962. <br />I thought that Bayside Jewish Center was in Old Bayside north of the expressway. Young Israel of Windsor Park's by the two family homes closer to Bell Blvd. And there was the Oakland Jewish Center, closer to Springfield Blvd. I know that the classrooms, originally built for the Hebrew School later on had been rented by a day school. <br />Joe Bovino was "Hi Joe!"

I went to the Heller Hebrew Academy which was housed mainly in the Bayside Jewish Center (and originally, in part in the Young Israel of Windsor Park, which is extremely close to the area addressed in this post and in the comments). The were a super kind ice cream man named Joe who I remember coming to the Bayside Jewish Center building every day during recess. Was this the same Joe? He was so nice. I think he treated kids on their birthdays, I remember him treating me.<br />neil fleischmannhttp://rabbifleischmann.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-79686453747797927902023-12-03T06:17:28.634+02:002023-12-03T06:17:28.634+02:00Gd willingGd willingBatyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476955.post-67906093576899237592023-11-30T00:26:15.916+02:002023-11-30T00:26:15.916+02:00Hi!
