Bert in his Ford We're not sure if Bert and Bertha's boarding house was in Livingston Manor, but maybe some of these pics will give you a clue. We know that at some point they moved to Guilford, NY. Bert did work in a lumber yard - I won't have the pic until my sister Linda visits next month. My dad told stories of Bert having to take the chickens to the rabi to be killed in a certain manner and blessed to become kosher for some guests. I guess he learned to kill them in the correct way and sometimes never made the trip all the way to the rabi! My family provided musical entertainment and dances on the weekends. Bert played the violin, my grandmother played the piano, etc. My father was very close to Bert and continued to visit even after my g grandmother, Bertha left him. In later years, Bert lived with a gentleman named Ed Haberly in Guilford until his death.
