Detroiter's Family
Reunion Ends 45
Year Separation

A 45-year separation ended
last week when Mr. and Mrs.
Saul Lipson, of 2215 Grand met
with his two brothers and a sis
ter in Brockton, Mass.
Meeting at the Brockton home
of his brother, Abraham Lipsitz
were Sam Lipsitz, also of Brock-
ton, and their sister, Mrs. Ethel
Moffa of Pretoria, Transvaal,
South Africa. It was the first
reunion of the family since they
emigrated from Europe, to the
United States and Africa 45
years ago.
Mrs. Moffa, who had made
the journey by plane, was ill on
her arrival, and received hospi-
tal treatment before she was
able to attend the reunion. Now
fully recovered, Lipson reports
that she is enjoying her stay in
this country and the brothers
are urging a prolonged visit.
Lipson noted that the reunion
was not- qiiite complete, as Mrs.
Moffa left a brother and two
sisters behind in Africa, together
with her three sons. Lipson
himself is the father of three
sons and two daughters.
