Hi Susan,
Shlomo's wedding was December 26, 1972. It was held at the site of the 1962(?) World's Fair in Flushing, Queens. I have lots of photos and will have to figure out how to post them.

A bunch of us drove across country from S.F. for the wedding in Neil Raders van. Pesach was with us, but I forgot who the others were. Malka and I were married a few months earlier; she flew in on the gift of a ticket from her parents.

I was there, but don't remember meeting you. I will tell you my memories of the wedding when I have more time, probably this Sunday night. Ne'eman
I'm curious to know if any of the Chevra from the HLP remember Shlomo's wedding. I think it was in 1973. I remember sitting at a table that was set up specially for the Holy Beggars. It was the first time I had met anyone from the HLP.
I don't know who clarabelle burke is, but this is obviously SPAM.

- How did you meet Shlomo?
- He stayed in my house in St. Louis when I was a little girl. My father probably knew Shlomo from yeshiva, also my father was the rabbi of a shul in St. Louis, so when Shlomo came there to perform, he stayed or visited with us. Then I was with Shlomo in New York when I was in Stern College, then in Israel. I lived in the House of Love and Prayer in Jerusalem one summer--does somebody out there remember the one on Rechov Teveria, or am I the only one? It was the most amazing experience.
