They were the central pillar of our family structure and my parents and aunts and uncles have carried on the traditions and the emphasis on love of family and the importance of charitable giving:' This past year, Rod's family made up a significant percentage of the guest list. Eight months before his December 2007 wedding, he was joined at the seder by Vicki, who would become his wife, and their combined offspring: Bryan, who is now 13, 10-year-old Andrew and 5-year-old Jason Brown; and 14-year- old Josh Murray and 11-year-old twins, Brittany and Samantha Murray. "They all had a phenomenal time Rod said. "Everybody loved it." And that includes Vicki's parents, Fran and Ronny White of Commerce Township. "We were just overwhelmed and excited to be a part of the seder," said Fran, who coincidentally was an old high school classmate of Helen Brown. "Everything was so organized; I marveled at the work and energy that went into planning it. And there was so much for the kids to do to par- ticipate that they all were so absorbed in the seder." The Brown-Lusky plan for this year is to go back to the seder model of yesteryear — with the original two extended families gathering sepa- rately. "But we've already talked about doing another big seder," Harriet said. "Everyone's asking, even the young- er generation, including our 7-year- old grandson, Shay Lusky (of West Bloomfield). "It was a tremendous amount of work, but well worth it," she said. "When we sat down and I looked around and up and down the tables to see everyone sitting there together, I knew we would definitely do it again. Being a very close family was always so important to my parents. Having all of us respect their love of family so much is quite a legacy:' Helen said.
