I am Libby Jochnowitz. I read of your mother's passing away in the Albany paper and Jewish World. If I am not mistaken, my parents Rose and Jerry Jochnowitz were life long friends of the Levys. My father Jerry came with Abe Levy to Albany to take their first civil service jobs at the NYS Attorney General's Office, Real Property Bureau, and as a teenager I was a babysitter for the kids. My sisters are Naomi and Cindy Jochnowitz. I am sorry to hear about your parent's passing away and I wish you the comfort for good memories and warm family. Libby Jochnowitz
