The grandparent stolpersteine have been moved



 News from Amsterdam!  The stolpersteine for the grandparents Adolf and Isabel Weiss have been moved to their permanent spot on Lekstraat.  Last autumn when we were there, the street Lekstraat was all torn up.  All of the existing stolpersteine had been removed and the plan was to place the new and existing stolpersteine after the construction was finished.  We walked over there (not a short walk) and it was all a mess in front of the houses.

Turns out the current resident was very interested in the stolpersteine and wanted to know more about them.  I sent what I had to her through An.  She had even requested one but found that I already had.  So there's another person interested.

When I was there I waved through the window but got no response.  Now I wish I had been a bit more persistent; I might have talked to her.  We could have invited them.

Suzie, Megan Scoutie are supposed to be here to plant flowers and eat pancakes.  Things are currently messed up.  Scoutie (aged 10 months) went down for a late nap and Suzie is stuck at work.  It will get straightened out eventually.
