Born in Queens, NY but raised in Hollywood, FL by parents seeking a better life. A college degree in Anthropology, and participated in several archeological excavations. Involved in many organizations and causes - including, but not limited to: human rights, historic preservation, women's rights, gay/lesbian rights and AIDS advocacy. For a period of time, active in local & states politics and was a delegate at at a National Convention nominating a president. Founded the Stonewall Library & Archives in Fort Lauderdale. Worked for Cunard, a British passenger ship co. for several years, and sailed around the world. A member of the British Royal Merchant Navy (but a proud citizen of the USA!)Now I enjoy travel and have visited nearly 100 countries on 6 continents. In 2004 spent more than 3 months in India and Nepal. More recently revisited Thailand and explored Cambodia and Myanmar (Burma). Studied Eastern wisdom for many years, adopted Buddhism a decade ago.
Currently a major pre-occupation of mine is restoring my 115 year old Victorian home in an historic neighborhood in Philadelphia; it is a "white elephant" with three floors, six bedrooms, and has stained glass windows, fireplaces, pocket doors, etc.
Internments include mother (Ray Silber), father (Abraham Silber) - both in Miami-Dade, Florida; my best friend, Carmen Lewis in Philadelphia, PA. | |

 | RE: G-d bless your dear sweet precious mother Hi Buddy,
Thank you for the message on my mothers memorial. There are many people who knew my mom who I have either lost touch with or simply cannot remember. I haven't checked up on this site for many years, sorry I didn't respond sooner... I updated my old email address in case you or anyone else who knew my mother Jennie ever wish to reply?
Best,
Richard aka Rick Baron | | | Kate Duvall

 | Hebrew Mutual Cem I was able to find this cemetary only after reading this article and following their link to the satellite map http://thecemeterytraveler.blogspot.com/2011/08/abandoned-jewish-cemeteries.html
Basically, it is on a back alley (unnamed), right off 65th Sr (not 63). Also, it now has a caretaker who lives next door & is involved with nearby Mt Moriah Contact her thru her Facebook page "The Haunt of Mount Moriah" | | | raytracer

Am now in the process of uploading them here on Find A Grave. Thought you might want to take a look...Cheers! | | | Kate Duvall
