Jewish Apartments & Services is pleased to announce the honorees for THE 2005 EIGHT OVER EIGHTY SENIOR ADULT JEWISH HALL OF FAME: parents should be prepared to deal with difficult questions and help children integrate this experience. That won't be easy, but it needs to be said explicitly. They may need to cry; you may need to cry. And you will need to know how to comfort them and yourself.
