According to Al Einhorn, " She was the sweetest person in the whole world. She was wonderful. Welcome, welcome come on in, sit down eat, drink. She was marvelous. Very religious. Hard worker with the cows and the boots. Slobbing along in those fields. She was the hardest working woman I ever knew."

According to cousin Shirley, "She came from a line of rabbis. Annie (Tanta Chana) forsaw everything that is happening today (passenger airplanes). She predicted everything that's happening. She was so brilliant. She would walk 4 miles to the synagogue every Shabbat morning. Grazing the cows, she would get angry at them and curse them in Yiddish (so the neighbors wouldn't understand). She was charitable. She took in two children. There was a man named Mr. Karap(?). They belonged to the same synagogue and the woman got tuberculosis and she had 3 or 4 children. Do you know Annie was the first one to raise her hand to take a couple of the children and Annie had 5 of her own. She spoke English like a cowboy. She knew every cowboy song. She was an amazing woman. She spoke beautiful english. She would fall asleep in the rocking chair after a days work. She was one terrific woman. Her father was a rabbi her grandfather was a rabbi and they were all brilliant people. She was such a clever woman, she would go through a prayer book with ease."

Annie had a sister who also came to the United States and settled in the Pittsburg area. Her name was Goldie Rubinovitz Caplan. She had five children. Annie died September 17, 1946 in New London at the age of 67. May these memories remain with us and future generations. Family memories from cousin Robert Sasportas
