    The both lied long lives, coming of age during the Great Depression, and witnessing the information age. Their gravestone contains a touching sentiment.

    A thoughtful post! “Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.” ― Rabindranath Tagore. (About the iPhoneography, is just another tool for creativity, I guess)

    A pretty memorial! I wonder who created the stone and words..."If tears could build a stairway...."

    I posted a photo last week of a stone with the very same poem on it. It's lovely!

    If he is in heaven, he is probably happy up there. He didn't have to wait too long for her arrival.

    Hi Kate...I checked my email a little while ago and was stunned to see so many comments from you! I'm delighted you enjoyed our Paree blog. I really can't take much credit for the photos as Paris photos kinda take themselves!

    When Lois first suggested we go to Paris, I was hesitant. You know, my attitude was why not go out to dinner instead?

    But what a trip. I didn't want to leave. If I could have, I'd have bought a place and stayed there and spent the days and nights lugging my cameras around! We're hoping to go back some time in the near future. The key word is "hoping."

    And we appreciate so much you're taking the time to check out our photos and comment on so many of them! Wow!

    Once more: I'm going to check out that book you recommended. Sounds very good. I just finished Alan Furst's latest novel, "Mission To Paris," which has to do with a movie star sent to Paris to make a movie in 1938 and gets drawn into spying against the Nazis. Thoroughly enjoyable.

    Ever thought what might be put on your own headstone...? I have. When I was a child we lived across the street from an old cemetery, and we played for hours there... we would read the headstones and make up stories about the people buried there.

    a bit too cliche in my opinion...
    but am curious who put it there!

    And I notice the reference to their being grandparents, with the Bupe and Nana. I suspect that is Yiddish, but not sure how the 'nana' crept in. And cannot see much else to indicate they may have been Jewish, other than the surname.
