Around the House
Judy and Rosalie's Room
Judy and Rosalie shared the small room behind this window. They shared a bed. There was an eight year age difference between the sisters, Judy got the whole room to herself at age 10. Here is a link to Judy talking more about growing up in Salem.... Judy Salem Stories.m4a
Judy's Back Yard
Judy spent countless hours running up and down this back yard. Judy knew all of her neighbors well, she told me stories about each of the houses surrounding her yard and of the people that lived in them. Back then, a community was involved in raising every child. Here is another link to Judy talking about her home town.... Judy in Salem.m4a
Isadore's Tree
My grandfather, Isadore Fishman, planted this tree about 70 years ago. I could feel the history of my family while standing in its presence. Here is a link to Judy talking about her father and his business.... Judy At Izzy's Buz.m4a
