Frances Green Levin

I received photos in the mail of Frances Green Levin. She was my grandmother's first cousin. It was quite a surprise to actually have photos, and Frances looks so much like my great-grandmother Fannie, Goldie's mom. I wanted to call her and tell her I had them, I know she would have been thrilled.

I wrote to a Celia Larsen last year, on a whim, knowing she was in her 90s. Her granddaughter called me and filled me in. Celia was Ivan Levin Larsen's second wife, Ivan married her after Frances died and also after Celia's first husband died. Celia's granddaughter filled me in on Ivan's son John William Larsen, and his daughters. When Celia passed I sent a sympathy card.

When I saw the envelope from Helene, I was quite surprised and so pleased and saddened too. Here was my family, my grandmother's family. Helene isn't aware that my grandmother passed too, a few months after Celia. Hopefully we can connect so I can thank her and fill her in.
