3	14August2001 - Rose Krastman passed away quietly in the hospital this morning. She said her farewells last night in my visit with her. The doctors were notified and were looking for any signs that she was having difficulties but could not find anything wrong. She knew it was her time and wanted everyone to continue to be happy, healthy, and prosper. Donald and family will be coming down here tonight or tomorrow morning. We will be sitting Shiva at 10924 Milburn St in Fairfax City VA. starting 8/15 or 8/16. The gravesite funeral was yesterday (Wednesday). Mom died on Tuesday 8/13/2001 around 10AM. She died quietly in the hospital and was not in any pain. The doctors had said that she was fine and ready to be released from the hospital but she knew that her time to leave us was near and she said her goodbyes the night before. She said that her work and duties were complete and it was time for those she loved to carry on and prosper. She knew that her arteries and heart were too weak to support her dreams to play with her young grandchildren and take care of her nephew Stanley Weiss. She requested that we tell Stanley about her and see to it that people visit and help him. Toward that wish son's Donald and Philip, along with Glenda Kirkman, and Joe Pawlak went to Levindale Nursing Home to visit with Stanley immediately after Rose's funeral. Stanley was happy to receive the only visitors that come to see him. Mike McManious and the few of my mom's family and friends left wished they could attend the graveside service too but they all had other commitments. My dad's cousin Libby Egert and son Joey joined Glenda, Joe, Donald, and Philip in burial rites for Rose. The ceremonial last rites were attended by a class of rabbinical students from the Baltimore Yeshiva, and we all took turns in prayer and returning the rocks and soil to cover the casket, contents, and gravesite. Rose Molly Krastman's Biography: Born Rebecca Millner 2/19/1918 in Baltimore City Maryland of immigrant parents Solomon Millner and Dena Goldberg Millner. Rose was the second of four children and the caretaker in the family. She was named Rose Molly at birth but because her mom did not speak English Rebecca her older sister's name was put on her Birth Certificate. Becky and Rose were raised during the great world-wide flu epidemic that devastated the world's population during her early years. She remembers the loss of many relatives. Then she endured the loss of her beloved uncle who volunteered to fight for American Freedoms in Europe during WWI. Rose cherished education and excelled in her public schooling. She advanced in academics and was well read. She accelerated a few grades in school so that she could help translate English and run the Family grocery store for her parents. When her younger brother's Eli and Henry came along she was the caregiver for them too. Rose's father died suddenly of a heart ailment when she was around ten years old. When rose was around 18 years old her mother was hit by an automobile and the broken hip resulted in her Mom contracting pneumonia and death. Older sister Becky married Phil Weiss and the family all lived with Phil and Becky. Rose was working to support the family when WWII broke out. She got secretarial jobs with the US Army at Aberdeen and Edgewood Arsenals. She helped raise her younger brothers as best she could. When her nephew Stanley was born she also helped raise him. After WWII Rose dated Frank Krastman who she fell in love with and married in 1952. Rose became housewife and mother in 1953. Philip was born in 1953 and Donald in 1955. Rose decided that she wanted to earn income and use her professional skills outside the home in 1961 so she took the federal and state civil service exams. Her verbal and writing skills got her a job as the secretary to Dr. Watson ( Director of the Baltimore Zoo). Rose's older sister, Becky, got a job as the chief accountant/auditor for the City of Baltimore Public Works Dept. Becky reported directly to the City Comptroller. When Dr. Watson left as director of the Baltimore Zoo, Rose got a job as a clerk with the Maryland State Health Department at its headquarters in Baltimore City. She worked for the director. A few years later she got the opportunity to work closer to home as the school secretary/clerk at Pimlico Elementary School. Rose worked the next twenty years for the Baltimore City Public School System at that school and she is remembered fondly by many students, staff, principals, co-workers, and parents for her many contributions. A wonderful retirement party was attended by two hundred people to celebrate Rose's contributions to the School. Frank, Phil, and Donald prospered during those years too and Rose saw the marriages of both her sons as well as the birth of her grand-daughter Marcie Chana. Rose took care of husband Frank during his and her both having heart ailments in 1984. In 1986 she lost her first and only true love husband Frank Krastman. He died in her arms of a heart attack and stoke. Rose had been taking care of (off and on of) grand-daughter Marcie since her birth in 1980. Rose tried to instill many good traits in Marcie by her direct example. Marcie loved playing with her Grandmother more as a playmate than a parent. Rose tried to teach Marcie traits such as responsibility and the need to exercise to develop her physical capacities, (walking). Rose suffered the loss of husband Frank. A year after his death 1987, Rose fell ill with failing heart blood circulation. She had a neighbor take her to the hospital where she died for 15 minutes during a test. Son Philip retrieved her from that hospital and got her admitted to Washington Hospital Center where she underwent Open Heart Surgery with wonderful results. Rose then outlived her siblings who also died of heart and stroke ailments. Rose got to meet many long lost relatives these past few years over connections via the Internet and WWW. Rose volunteered to do tasks at many VA and MD Senior Centers, volunteer organizations, she gave blood many times, taught emigrants English, worked to staff Washington DC based folk festival activities, was active in folk dance groups, and continued her intellectual pursuits. Rose enjoyed her participation in the Northern VA Ethical Society as a friend and felt like minded in the societies beliefs. Rose loved her close relationship with Glenda Kirkman and all of Glenda's relatives. Rose traveled much in her adult life after husband Frank died. She had traveled with Donald, Philip, and the Fairfax City Seniors to Israel, the Caribbean, Canada, and all over the Eastern US. Her declining health did not permit her to visit some of the places that she would have liked to. She was dismayed at the current state of bloodshed in Israel and she predicted that the conflicts there would only get worse to where she did not want to think about it during her last day. As Marcie entered puberty in 1994, Marcie severed relationships with her father and grandmother's families. Rose lamented the death to cancer of Donald's wife Sheila Lefkowitz Krastman in 1993. In 1996 Rose's nephew Dr. Stanley Weiss was struck by a speeding car as he was crossing the street and Rose spent many months watching over her nephew in the trauma unit till Stanley recovered as much as he could. Rose visited Stanley as much as she is able too and she requested that people continue kind deeds to her nephew Stanley. Son Donald met and married his second wife Debbie in 1995 and they have had two boys and a daughter. Grandchildren Frank, Robert, and Sara were great joys in Rose's life. Rose only briefly met grand-daughter Sara and older brother Robert, but she did get to know and love the oldest boy Frank who is now six years of age. Frank was quite hurt that his mother would not permit him to pay his last goodbyes to his very much loved grandmother. Rose lamented that she would not have the strength and time to visit with her grandchildren before her leaving us. Rose knew that her time was up the night before and she said her goodbyes to Philip and Glenda in Rose's usual grace and forgiving directness. Rose was strong and in control of her feelings and body till the end which she wished to be the beginning for all of those people who she loved and leaves behind.

42	Cape Town - A gay man from Sea Point was reportedly killed over the weekend after he went on a date with someone he had met over the internet. The body of Graham Flax, 65, was found under a duvet in the corridor outside his flat in the Costa Bravo apartment building, reported Die Burger. His friend, Atol McLaggan, said Flax had gone to meet someone, but wasn't sure if it was a friend or a date. He added that Flax often went on internet dates. A police spokesperson said Flax had suffered a hard knock to the head. Screams “Residents of the building heard how he screamed: ‘Let me go! Let me go!" at about 02:40 on Saturday morning," said Captain Frederick van Wyk. A laptop and cellphone had been stolen from the flat, which was not locked. Police said the murder could not be linked to the murders of eight other gay men in Gauteng, but said there were similarities in the cases. A man had apparently handed himself over in connection with Flax’s murder and was still to appear in court. McLaggan said Flax was a soft target. "He had poor vision and he was one of those men who grew up in a community where homosexuality was suppressed. I think it often appears as though older men have money." Flax was retired and worked as a volunteer at the Jacob Gitlin library. He had moved down to Cape Town from Johannesburg over year ago. “I can understand that the kind of dates that Graham went on made him vulnerable to robbery. But to be attacked with so much violence, that I don’t understand,” said McLaggan.	Flax, Graham (I396)

45	Committed suicide on his 70th birthday. In 1921 he went to France to get his brother's (John Jacob Rome) body from the American Cemetery in France and for it to be reburied in the U.S. There was a full military funeral in Pittsburgh. Peter also fought in WWI and also in the American/Mexican War in 1916 "chasing the bandit Pancho Villa".	Rome, Peter (I3019)
