From Lenny 03-10-17      Efrat's SecretAfter Efrat passed away I was left with the task of emptying our house.  A lifetime of accumulated possessions (MEMORIES) ... I was very happy to be the one doing this... I spent a week or more slowly going through everything piece by piece.  I hired a guy from craigslist to help (from jersey) - he was a very decent guy (even with the "bling" hanging from his neck!).  After the house was virtually empty there was 1 thing left that for some reason I could not sell or even give away (I sold what I could and donated what was left (except for the few things I kept of course) --- her office desk:  it was like new - I had it for sale cheap and then free at the garage sale/s.. I advertised it on craigslist (come and take for free!)... no one took it... so I decided to put it out by the curb for a few days before calling goodwill or taking it apart and hauling it away.  As we were moving it outside (it was VERY heavy)... as I tried to get a better grip I felt a rattle and I found a false partition in one of the deep drawers.  Inside were Efrat's personal diaries... for over 18 years... detailed daily writings from about when our daughters were born till after they graduated high school.
