| Lazar Fixman’s and Ella Laddin’s wedding. This picture also includes the Laddin family but Leib is there again in the middle. The gentleman at the end of the first row is my father’s other grandfather Zede Laddin. I mention this because my dad always remembers that both grandfathers had great respect for each other although completely different characters. “How’s your other grandfather?” they would each ask my dad. |
