By Jody Pinion
The Shalom Y’all committee
sponsored by Women’s Divi
sion of the Charlotte Jewish
Federation was pleased to
hold our summer wine and
cheese party in the Youth
Lounge of the new Jewish
Community Center. What a
welcome for our newcomers to
enjoy our new facility first
hand, gazing over the outdoor
pool while enjoying wine, bak
ed cheese and fresh fruit.
Pamela Horowitz, 22, has
been in Charlotte 6 months.
Formerly of Lakewood, N.J.,
she moved here to be closer to
family. She is single and works
at the Sharon Branch Librairy.
Howard and Meredith Glazer

Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Howard is the new director of
Pharmacy Education for
Charlotte Health and Educa

southeast, Howard got his
pharmacy education in
Charleston. The Glazers have
two sons: Chad, 8, and Seth, 16
months.
Jonathan Jabions, originally
from New York, has been here
a year and a half. He is single
and works at Circuit City.
Abraham and Lillie Schatz-
berg, have been here 6 months.
They moved from Miami hav
ing resided there for 40 years.
They admit it has been dif
ficult to pull up roots and
move after such a long time,
but they wanted to be nearer
to their daughter. Lillie enjoys
the theater and is involved
with WomanReach.
David and Renee Vitt, here
just 4V2 weeks are previously
from East Windsor, New
Jersey. They have two
children: Nadine, 21, and Jef
frey, 19, who came here with
their parents. David is presi

and sportswear department.

Stu Epstein, health and physical education director of JCC, is also a
newcomer.
Ron Brooke, single, has been
here one year. He is in the
meat packing business with
Gwaltney of Smithfield.
Originally from Virginia
Beach, he likes to go to the
beach in his spare time but ad
mits Charlotte is just too far
away.
Larry and Marilyn Guss,
moved here 6 months ago from
Michigan, also wanted to be
closer to family. Larry is an
engineer with Odell and
Associates. Marilyn’s mother
was raised in nearby Hender
sonville. What a change from
Michigan. They are indeed im
pressed by our heat and dry
spell lately. They have a son
living in California.
Steve Myers got the “new
prize” of the evening. He has
been in Charlotte barely a
month. He is single and works
as a business consultant for
FCA International. He grew
up in Boston but moved here
from Ft. Lauderdale. Family is
also the reason Steve moved
to North Carolina, in fact, “my
mom made me come”.
Haim and Nava Duek moved
here 9 months ago from Israel.
Haim works as an engineer for
the computer company Scitex.
Nava is studying computer

miss their family back in
Israel but feel Charlotte is a
great place to raise a family.
They have a son, Omri, 3, and
Nava is due in September with
number two.
Gene and Lori Benjamin
have been in Charlotte since
January by way of Winston-
Salem and Texas. Gene is a
neurologist with Demas
Neurological Group. They
have a son, Brian, two-years-
old.
We also had several “old
newcomers” back for a second
Shalom Y’all get together to
help us welcome the “newer
newcomers”, and to make new
friends hopefully for a long
time. Howard Sherman, for ex
ample, has been here four
years, and came back to enjoy
another party. Libby Sutker,
Colleen and Stu Epstein, Dvora
Berri, with her visiting
mother-in-law Shul Amith,
and Elissa and Jim Meadow all
came back to share a good
time and to convince the
newcomers — it does get
better.
The institutional and
organizational representatives
were also given an opportuni
ty to tell a httle bit about
themselves. Those present
were: Tobey Silber, president
Charlotte Chapter BBW;
