My Aunt Sylvia Ungerman lives in Toronto, Ontario Canada. She is ninety four and her elevator still goes to the Top Floor literally and figuratively. On February 6th and 7th 2018 I planned to visit her not having done so for too many years. Her three grown kids are my cousins.  Unbeknownst to me and unexpectedly, and a bit sooner than planned, her daughter-in-law Jacqueline gave birth to a son, and a party to celebrate that event was held on the 7th in her home. This is no ordinary party in the life of new- born Jewish boy. It is time to complete the blessing of the “Bris”—the “First Covenant”  (Genesis 17) that indicates that male children should be circumcised. See Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covenant_(biblical)  (See “Abrahamic Covenant”). This video is about the Newborn Ira Sukerman, his mother and father, My aunt Sylvia, Her brother Benny, his family including my brother and I and our children. It’s about the love of Sylvia and her late husband Irving who were greatly loved.  Please note:  The video is best viewed in large screen mode.
