+ It’s truly a small world, after all
When Temple Beth Israel Rabbi Jonathan Katz met with St. Armands resident Nina Sysak recently, he realized it was not the first time they had met.
In 1978, Katz was studying abroad in Luxembourg and took a trip to London. He visited the Greek embassy there for a research paper he was writing about the European Union and why it had been slow to let Greece join. Sykos told him that she was a cultural attaché at the time and that she would have been the person to handle the inquiry. She didn’t remember Katz’s visit but knew from his description that she did, in fact, meet with him. He remembered her office in detail and that she wore her hair back and that it was black instead of the current reddish-brown shade.
