Irving Kleinmann with wife Ester and cousins

Irving Kleinmann with wife Ester and cousins

This is my brother Irving Kleinmann with his wife Ester. They are the ones sitting. My aunt, my mother's sister, is the one standing, wearing a hat. Right beside her is her husband, whose family name was Friedman. The photo was taken in the USA but I don?t know when exactly.

My brother Nabel was born in 1900. In 1929 he went to America and worked as a servant. There he changed his name to Irving. He worked as a manager after World War II. He was married to Ester who was born in New York in 1912. She died in 1999 in Florida. Irving died from Parkinson's disease in 1986, also in Florida.
