Maria Abramovna Korotina, my paternal grandmother, observed Jewish traditions very faithfully. We had family gatherings at my grandparents’ place every Friday. My grandmother made great dinners with lots of delicious food. She served stuffed fish, patties made with meat and fruits, and roast with prunes. Her sons and daughters and their children and grandchildren went there to celebrate Pesach, Purim, Chanukah and Sabbath with them. On the holidays she always served a traditional Jewish meal. Prayers were said before the meal, and on the Sabbath, grandmother lit the candles.
