Re: [Cz-L] the given f. name Shella

   Hi Jerome,
   In my hometown, I remember, many girls who were given the name "Rachel"
opted for a variation which was Rachelle, Raschella, Schella, or Schelli.
   Since this is my own given name, I ought to know. How I got to "Lucca?" My
Polish grandfather used to call me, when I was very small "Ruhale" . I was
about two years old then, and I could not pronounce "Ruhale", so it came out
as "Luccale". The rest is history. My identity papers carry both names.

   Now what I wanted to ask you: do you think that you will join the
Czernowitzers for the planned trip?
   By now everybody had his say, but you are kind of..silent! How've you
been, everything ok?
   We have here hot, hot summer, literally as well as politically. Many
Israelis actually fear that our country will cease to exist! After so much
bloodshed, in the past as well as now!

   Have a nice Shabath,
   Lucca
