John, thank you for this article.  There is a typo, it is Malka not Marta. Malka married Michael Nagel, one of my husband's very best friends, and together had 3 sons--the eldest has passed, the middle son lives in or near London, England, and was born the same year as my daughter, 1980, and their youngest is slightly younger than my son Kevin--but all 5 kids went to the same Hebrew School at Congregation Beth David in Saratoga, CA.  Malka and Mike were both born in Israel, so it is no surprise that neither spoke English. Malka's brother David Buchinger lived for a time in NYC, but has been living in Israel for many years now.  Small World — Donna Kanter Frankel

Malka

It’s a small world.  My friend who lives in Israel sent me this article. She got it from a mutual friend - Donna Kanter Frankel. I am an immigrant from Israel who moved to San Diego when I was 6 years old in 1960.  The article is correct.  I did not know English.  MY parents spoke Hungarian at home so I understand Hungarian.  I grew up in Israel so I spoke and understood Hebrew.  I got married young at 21 while still in college.  I received my BA in social work from SDSU as well as my Masters from SDSU in social work, with one year at Boston University.  I also studied one year abroad at Tel Aviv University.  My ex-husband was also born in Israel. He was a PhD physicist who was working in the nuclear energy field at General Atomic.  We moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1979, one year after my first son was born. We lived in Cupertino most of the time, where we raised three boys.  My oldest son passed away from brain cancer in 2017.  My career moved from social services to working in the semiconductor field.  I owned two different companies, providing all aspects of marketing-design, typsetting, printing and trade shows.  Following that I got my real estate license, while also breeding German Shepherd dogs under the then world-renowned kennel, von Alcazar Zwinger.  For 15 years I owned and ran a dog kennel in Santa Clara, CA called A Pet Villa.  I sold it to retire and spend time with my now 97-year old mother who lives in San Diego, as well as my grandkids who live in Arizona and England.  I have a 38-year old single son who lives in San Francisco and is a marketing tech, if anyone has any leads!! I live in San Diego and in Santa Cruz, CA — Marta Buchinger Nagel
