To Monique and friends: My new book, "A Nice Jewish Girl From The Bronx & New Jersey," will be published on Monday, November 25th. A portion of the proceeds from the book will be donated to The American Cancer Society and the American Heart Association in memory of my sons Ronald and Steven Wexler. The price of the book is $25, and purchasers will receive receipts for their donations to the American Cancer Society and American Heart Association. I will mail the books to you and there will be no shipping charge. The 170- page book contains my story, poems and many photos of family and friends. I self-published the book and did all the editing of copy and photographs myself (I have worked as an editor and finally taught myself how to make photos look good). This hasn't been easy for an 85-year-old woman with high blood pressure, but I loved every minute of it. My sincere apologies for not keeping in touch. It's been difficult and I am very tired, but now I have a true legacy for my family and friends. May God Bless you. Love, Annette
