While documenting the story mention as many details as possible, including significant family names, places and dates, to record the most authentic, rich and accurate narrative as possible. 

I use to play with my cousins hide and speak when we were done eating on Pesakh, I remember During Sukkot sleeping in the sukkah and having a great time with the whole family playing games and having fun. I remember sitting around f the table with my whole family having a great time and at the end saying Birkat hamazon. It was all fun and games with the whole family, but then I heard that my Sabah was going to move to the US to become a canter. For many years we. Stayed in Israel, but then one day my Sabah called and said, " you guys should come move hear with the whole family, I have build a great life, and it is very safe.” That's how I got to the US, but it was not that easy, we had to take a boat to the US, and many of my cousins that came got really sick, and it was non stop. It was a very turf journey, but my Sabah was right, it was a lot safer, and he did build a great life.

 

The most interesting thing that I learned from this interview was that every single holiday all of my Savtas Cousins, Uncles, Aunts, and Grandparents all got together to have a great time celebrating the holidays.
