Sonush

This is an old photo (obviously) of me sitting in my brother's lap. I must have been about 3 years old, so it had to have been 1970. My brother's real name is Ed, but the family called him Sonny, since he was a Jr. Of course, "Sonny" wasn't a good enough nickname -- I had to spice it up a bit -- so I call him "Sonush."

This is one of my favorite photos.

Sonush is about 6 foot-4 and he used to put me up on his shoulders and walk me up to Gus' Delicatessen on Garfield Blvd. to buy me candy. I asked him why he doesn't do that anymore. I got no response.

Sonush said he thought of me the other day as he was cleaning his toilet. Nice.
