The man I married changed his name. Go figure. Aharoni is common among the sephardim. It derives from Aharon who is prominent in history.<br /><br />Thanks for visiting my small digital corner!<br /><br />ValerieValeriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02111663224702601908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2209898072913503046.post-7639921040268460522009-05-23T08:35:21.619-04:002009-05-23T08:35:21.619-04:00Hi Valerie,<br />I read your blog so, of course, your name is familiar. Yesterday I was reading the June 2009 issue of O and there's an article about several groups of Palestinian and Israeli women who meet to fight weight problems. One of them is Shoshana Aharoni, 62, a retired nursery school teacher. I don't know is your name is a common one but thought of you. It's a wonderful article about the women coming together and helping each other. Small steps.<br />SusanSusan Turneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09864635774677436375noreply@blogger.com
