I remember going to Cousin Ben's Drug Store as a little girl with my father whenever we had a prescription to be filled. I also recall taking the city bus (Park to Struckmar) to visit Stuart and Brenda when they were very, very young. I am so sorry to hear Ben is no longer with us--he's the one cousin who had memories of the Schnidman family, and he will be missed.
