Alan Hornstein | @ | url My father's side of the family emigrated from Bucharest,Rumania around 1900. My father (Sam Hornstein 1905-1963) told me stories about growing up in the south Bronx (Southern Blvd) in the same tenement as your grandfather. Later other relatives told me they were related. My grandfather Marcus Hornstein (1875-1951) was a first cousin or something??? I was told that Edward's brother Oscar attended my grandfathers funeral. Just wondering if you have any knowledge of a connection to the Hornstein family? regds Alan Hornstein 29 July 2005 - Brooklyn, NY - now living in Menlo Park, Ca Response:   Dear Alan, Let me look into it...I can get back with you through your e-mail address.. Thank you, Francesca Pablo Ramos | @ | url Dear Francesca, My deepest condolences. I heard the news around that time, my mom had told me about it. From what I remember of Ricky, he was a kind and thoughtful man and I'll always remember him fondly, as well as the rest of my family. Last night I showed my mom this website with your photo on it and she was so happy to see you and to hear you're are doing well. One day, Jairo had dropped by on a delevery run to say hello and only Adam was home. He gave him a photo of his graduation for my mom. Hehehehe, I would see that photo of him from time to time but, never questioned my folks who it was thinking it was another family memeber from South America. Then last night my mom pulled the photo from underneath the glass top of her dresser and said that was Adam. HE'S A MAN!!! Ooohhh how time flys. Anyway, it's nice to hear from you again and my mom will be very happy hear your voice again. Take care and please tell Adam we say hello. Ciao for now, Sinerely, Pablo Ramos 29 July 2005 - Hollywood, Ca. Pablo Ramos | @ | url Hi Francesca, My mom (Lucrecia Rodriguez)is looking for you to say hello to you and your son (Adam) and to also say good-bye.
