I asked him where were volumes 2 and 4. He said someone had given the books to him and that was all he had. I read books 1, 3 and 5, and was curious about what happened in books 2 and 4. From that time on I became interested in and began acquiring books of Jewish content. Uncle Bob, I have spent a fortune on books on account of you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Shirley Temple curls<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I cannot remember any time in my life when Aunt Mildred was not in it. My very earliest memory of our relationship is of Sundays after Buddy was born and I started going to Religious School kindergarten. On alternate Sundays my father would deposit me at my Radman grandparents on Clay Street near 11<sup>th<\/sup> St., or at Grandma Annie Meyer\u2019s house on 19<sup>th<\/sup> Street where Aunt Mildred also lived. We had a routine. After Grandma Annie\u2019s dinner, Aunt Mildred would wash my hair and roll it up in rags. When my hair was dry and the rags removed, the resulting look was vertical curls in the style known as Shirley Temple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a picture of me at about 8, taken on 19<sup>th<\/sup> Street, with George, Buddy, Harriet and Miriam, still sporting that hair style. I guess by that year we were all getting dumped on Aunt Mildred on Sundays!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/lisamishli.com\/bernice-meyer-saltzman\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/1937_Meyer_1st_Cousins-i-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-547\" width=\"600\" height=\"786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lisamishli.com\/bernice-meyer-saltzman\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/1937_Meyer_1st_Cousins-i-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/lisamishli.com\/bernice-meyer-saltzman\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/1937_Meyer_1st_Cousins-i-1-229x300.jpg 229w, https:\/\/lisamishli.com\/bernice-meyer-saltzman\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/1937_Meyer_1st_Cousins-i-1-782x1024.jpg 782w, https:\/\/lisamishli.com\/bernice-meyer-saltzman\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/01\/1937_Meyer_1st_Cousins-i-1-768x1006.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>George H.
