Victoria Angelova and her friend Rashel Djivri

This is a photo of my mother Victoria Angelova, nee Elazar (on the right) and her friend Rashel Djivri. It was taken in Borisovata gradina [the biggest park in Sofia] in 1929. My mother's friend Rashel is the mother of my wedding sponsor Suzi to whom I owe the acquaintance with my husband, Liubomir Kasabov. My friend Suzi introduced me to my future husband during a vacation in the early 1950s when I was studying at the Language School in the town of Lovech. Suzi's boyfriend and future husband Anri Djivri knew my husband and so two lady-friends married two friends.
