ROSENBLOOMS CELEBRATE 65 YEARS

Samuel Rosenbloom and Annabel Drazen Rosenbloom celebrated their 65th anniversary on Aug. 11.

Sam was on a five-day leave from his base in San Francisco and had to depart the next morning on the train to get back in time. Fortunately, they have been blessed with many years together since that hurried beginning. They have two sons, Eliot Jon and Ray, and a granddaughter, Liana.
